There will be plenty of wild life around there that can be captured on a daily basis.

Having set up exactly what you seek to set up, I have herds of white tail around me (you should see the effort we go through to keep them out of our gardens!). There are plenty of edible critters to harvest in a shtf scenario...

However. Now really think about this, When the shtf becomes reality, no matter how far you are isolated from the hungry hordes (trust me, we are WAY off the grid) there are going to be huge crowds of hungry folk looking for meat. What's the estimate... 200 million guns in the private sector? No matter how far you are off the grid, those Dad's with hungry kids to feed, amongst others are going to end up in your A.O., what are we going to do... kill them all?

From what I've gleaned from all the materials available, it is estimated that Most of the herds and what not will be eliminated within two to three months, I've heard even less time from others.

Indeed, plan on supplementing your diet from what nature provides you, but think about what I'm trying to tell you. If you can afford to, splurge on as much canned meat as you possibly can, while you can FRiend!

Hope to see you on the other side of this coming storm!

I can grab some canned meat, what I worry about is people will eat it before they really need it and it just becomes waste.

It is hard to control people in an isolated communitiy sometimes.

There will be plenty of wild food available near by and I am sure to have several months of food. But I am not going to be able to stock a 2 or 3 year supply of meat.

I am going to stock a 5 year supply of grains, but that is pretty much it for long term stores.
