"especially a hardy source of vitamin C."

Tang (remember Tang?) is still available online and has 100% of the anti-scurvy C! For those of us not in citrus growing climates who want to prep.

There are several hardy cold weather varieties of Kiwi fruit, some Plum varieties, And the native PAW PAW. The most advantageous position is to be set up for the long term.
