One thing I keep wondering about - Everyone talks about how there is no place for them to garden, and they live in an apartment, etc. Why don’t churches and non-profit organizations rent farmland as close to their location as possible. You can rent fertile farm land for between $35 and $180 an acre for a whole year (depending on state). Most of those organizations have busses or vans - why don’t they organize to rent the land and transport their members to the gardens if they don’t have a way of getting there.

I also wonder why they don’t get together canning and dehydrating groups. The equipment could be bought by the church/organization and make it available to their members. That way, those who had the skills could teach those who were unskilled. Not only would it feed their members, but they would grow a close knit organization and improve the outlook not only physically and nutritionally, but also emotionally too.

Sounds like you're talking about what the LDS have been doing for a long time now.

I imagine the way society is now (dumbed down and thinking the government will solve all their problems), this won't happen with other sects until it is desperately needed.

I have long since given up on most of them...(society and churches).

Can’t you just see them now... Hey Dude, I dug up this dirt and stuck the seeds in - where’s the food?

Unless they get in gear, they will be a day late and a dollar short! (I’ll just leave it at that - I could get wound up.....)
