Good beginning - hope they are planning to farm, raise livestock and grow corn etc., for the long term. Unless they plan on shooting wild turkeys, deer & rabbits.

If they don't know how to/aren't currently gardening, they are going to be very disappointed and hungry.

I spent most of a decade making all the common mistakes and losing some crops before I got really good at being able to count on putting enough food back to last until next spring.

At that, I'm out of tomatoes from last summer's harvest, but I'm still good on jalapeno peppers.

Having the stuff doesn't give you the skillsets to use it.
