“””At the farm, we then joined to get prepared for what may be heading our way. Lots of chickens, turkeys, guinea fowl, ducks, cows raised on the pasture for freezing, a few pigs ready for the butcher soon, and the farm raises a couple of thousand sheep a year. We have a huge garden, honey bees, laying hens, and an outbuilding with a walk-in fridge at one end for all of the storage. Large generator, large gas containers, tractors, wood stoves, a lots of trees to cut. My son also has a property with many trees. The kids all hunt, so we’ve also got lots of Canadian geese in the freezer which is going to be made into sausage, deer, wild ducks, etc. So much canning on the shelves, and 8 freezers almost full.”””
When I hear of an incredible situation like that, the first thing I think of is ‘WHEAT’.
If I had a Garden of Eden situation like that I would want to make sure that I had years of long-storage wheat for years of baking and bread, some rice would also be nice.
My SIL, Matt, also does crops with his father. There’s wheat, corn, soya beans at various locations. There’s a fair bit of acreage. He hasn’t kept any of the crops as of yet, but it’s available if need be. We’ve been very blessed, and, thankfully, I know they will help as many as they can.
