That is a reminder that if you know how to can meat and make jerky, and you already have all of your canning supplies and have fuel, as I do, then you can turn your frozen meat and your neighbors soon to spoil meat (trade them, or help them for a percentage), into the freshest, best part of your food stores.
I am ordering my gardening supplies with survival in mind.
I have already planted berry bushes on my property and am ordering blueberries this year.
I buy seeds for plants that are open pollinated, that I can save the seeds from.
We have some black walnut trees on our property and if I can just figure out how to get the nuts open.....
We actually know several people who are also prepared like us, or who live much further out in the country and could survive off heir land.
Since we are pretty rural, we are not too worried about spillover from the cities as they would have quite a ways to go to reach us. Everyone knows everyone else in our town and a whole herd of *outsiders* looking to loot, would likely be shot.
