My chief purpose in keeping a garden for the last fifteen years or so has been so that the kids would know how to raise vegetables.

You never know when that kind of knowledge may come in handy.

We have been entertaining some of the grandkids with the same. Took them to tour some of the organic farms around here too. Showed them how to skim the cream off the milk, and make butter etc.

Good skill to have. Lots of 'preppers' are going to starve when they realize that those open-pollinated seeds require real skill-sets to turn into food.
