Tiger, I’ve gotten the feeling that you kinda see me as the “crazy old uncle” when I talk on other threads about ‘subsistence farming’ and ‘investing in trade goods’...

Well, maybe I am — but it appears that I’m not the lone voice in the wilderness, after all....

“crazy old uncle”

No, you are the trendsetter.:-) I also believe that some form of subsistence farming would emerge as a necessity to battle back economic downturn. I don't think it is far-fetched. Besides, it may be good for your health and mind if you do it in good conservative way, not in snobby liberal greenie or veggie way.:-)

“crazy old uncle”<<<

I have not been called that, ‘yet’.

Have been the goat lady and bird lady and a few other titles.

I drive my brother crazy, he refuses to get in the rather large box of nuts and bolts that I have collected, amazing how many are there on the street. He wants to go to the store and get exactly the size, HE thinks will fit.

Farming, yes, I was born on a farm and being 3/4 Cherokee, it comes natural to me.

And it tastes so much better than the store bought foods do.

Please join in on this thread, so we can make it worth the space we are taking up.

You will know many things that I do not and there is an interest in survival, it is up to those who know to share their knowledge.

Please.
