Seen a lot of people talking about this stuff, but this video quotes a lot of respected sources. Scary stuff.

One lesson I learned from taking Nutrition 101 for my nursing prerequisites is this: You can survive for a long time on rice and beans. Stock up on rice and beans and yes, start a home garden.

Try some plant netting over the tomatoes. We have to do that for the strawberries and cherry trees and blueberries. The raspberries not so much

I have a nice big greenhouse here on the farm... I have never used it. Now seems like a good time.
I know nothing about gardening, but I suppose I can figure something out... gardens were my late sister’s thing.
I have two wells here, one is a shallow well in a stone well-house and I need to figure out how to get a hand-pump installed in there...in case of a power failure.
I have a 1500gal water tank that can gravity feed to the house, I need to fill that....soon.
We live in interesting times...

I don't have access to any land, so I have a pretty good container garden going in my windows.
Some of y'all might consider that possibility.

You MUST Start a Garden NOW Now? Can't I at least wait until the last frost day?

The squirrels are what really go after my garden. Tree rats.

Interesting times indeed. Sounds like you’ve got a great place for gardening. Start small, and expand as long as you can still manage everything. Square Foot Gardening is a good technique to use.

Thinking the same thing...in a few weeks, I will do some starting. I keep a large garden normally, and I have a lot fruit trees I’ve been putting in as well.
To: Mr. K
Indeed. There are much larger garden pests than potato bugs. Some with 2 legs.
