I ADVISE YOU TO CLICK THIS! It has begun. FOOD SHORTAGES.

I got all from here, love ya

Read the last ten pages or so of Thread: Practical Prepping Protocol even if Poor (Page 201) We collect it all.

Farmer's daughter telling the truth - ignore us or make fun of us at your peril.

Mental Case getting smart!!

With lots of vitamins and minerals in it, which will be badly needed on our semi-limited SHTF diet.

"Fine" in the sense that there will be food available...

but "not fine" in the sense that

MOST WORKING FOLKS MAY NOT BE ABLE TO AFFORD IT.

Here's someone you could listen to about what's coming. He's probably my alltime favorite YTer, and also Patreon.

I'd add

5 - 10 lbs spices
5 - 10 lbs herbs
5 - 10 lbs tea

And I'd buy it all wholesale at
San Francisco Herb Co
[link to www.sfherb.com]

I'd add
vitamins, minerals and supplement
from Swanson Vitamins and/or Vitacost

I'd add
a lot of canned salmon
bottled lemon juice
bottled vinegar

and don't forget
SALT
lots of salt, good sea salt or mined mineral salt
I like
Redmond Salt
but it's expensive so I bought himalayan salt on sale

Am I wrong or aren't broiler chickens processed at about 8 weeks of age? How long can it take to replace what was lost? Not long?

the average farmer is 63

their farms were wrecked not just dead livestock/floodfields

they lost the capacity to farm, the roads to deliver seed, fertilizer, the silos to dry the harvested grain etc

many will just quit now, too old to take this abuse, no sons willing to step up and work that hard life.

those who have livestock will cull and sell them, no cheap food to feed them means they will be sent to be processed

I anticipate many rural distress farm sales by this autumn

and if they hold another farm aid concert, you can bet it will be focused on the flooded farms this year

There's always 2 groups of people. The ones that say stop with the fear mongering, everything will be fine (must be nice to be so sure), and the one's trying to prepare and convince others to do the same. Myself, I'd rather be safe than sorry. I've tried to tell family members that they should stock up, but nobody seems to take it seriously.

I live out in the country and raise a garden, rabbits, chickens. Still I fully realize how hard it would be to completely supply all the food you and your family needs. We're all used to going to the store and buying anything we need whenever we want.

The fact is the whole world is having weather problems, which is hurting crop production everywhere. It might seem like there's a lot of people out there prepping when you're on this site. But the fact is prepared self sufficient people are the extreme minority. Most people in this country are totally dependent on the just in time delivery system.

I'm in a rural low income area, and I can drive past dozens of homes and only see a garden every once in a while. The truth is there's a lot of people who should be trying to garden and raise their own food, but they're too lazy to bother. They'd rather use their ebt cards and get free food from the store. I'm not knocking those that use their food assistance money responsibly, but there are an awful lot who seem to feel entitled. Most people barely have a few days worth of food in their homes, and it's because they are used to running to the store or going out to eat. If anything happens to disrupt our food supply, or even if it just becomes super expensive all hell is going to break loose I guarantee it! People who do nothing, because they don't think anything bad could happen in this country are taking a huge gamble, and they don't even realize it.

There would be some food available - different items at different times, I would expect, but never enough, never quite what a person wants and is accustomed to, and only at prices that shock and tease, but do not allow for purchase by the ordinary family.

Where you gonna get the chicks from?

Well said.
Most people live by the seat of their pants.
Add a pandemic of Ebola or something and it's gonna get bad.

Often there are discounts that working people can take advantage of. I have %5 off at a local foodservice store. I can get different beans at around $1 per pound and with the discount get more off. Spend your money wisely and you'll wonder at the bounty that you have.

Dumb fucks that have never participated in cog or coop ops. Stay static, die. Stay put, die. Mobility equals life.

13 pages of pure shit.

Many farms have already been put on the market and immediately were snatched up, primarily by the Chinese.

The Chinese are desperate for food- their population growth is out of control and they are at a loss to feed their own people. Russia has offered them a great deal of rich soil acreage on which to grow food for their nation, and the Chinese are busy doing so.

China has money, but no food. Now they are buying our farms, and you know where that food will go. Thus we lose again, losing the crops that had always been grown on those farmlands for us, for the USA.

Our farmers are tired. They've been through other floods, though not this bad, and through low prices for their produce, and so many harsh attacks on their way of life that they are giving up, giving in. We've been mollycoddled in the area of food supply for a great many years, and now we will have to face up to the change, that we have to grow a good deal of our own, and we will have to do without some of the items we have considered staples.

This is actually a good thing in the long run, if people enter the harsh conditions with at least a year or two of food put away, and a great many heirloom seeds, and have asked questions and researched among good gardeners, experienced gardeners, information all over the internet as well as in their own neighborhoods.

Many will not have ground to grow in - this is a problem, as it is for me, so we have to make do. Try to get to a rural area. That location will be best for any sort of SHTF situation, and especially for enough room for planting, chickens, etc. Those who remain in cities will have the hardest time of all, from food to water to security to disease infestation.For these I recommend finding relatives, friends, associates, who might assist - perhaps they could supply the heirloom seeds to such associates and friends and relatives, and go to the location whenever possible to help with the labor. That might work. However, now would be the time to set up such an arrangement, NOT AFTER SHTF!!!

If we work hard at it, we can grow our own healthy food, and not have GMOs in our bodies making us ill. In that way, it would be worth it, right? Worth having to grow, to make arrangements to share space and labor, to do whatever we have to do in order to survive and survive well.

Someone is very, very afraid.

Nope. I've known about this since the 80s. Still part of us contingency. You on the other hand should be scared shitless...

My good friend Cyberpunk! How lovely to see you! Did the chickens and dog wear you out?

Bargain shopping is the only way to go - yet people today seem to think their time is too valuable to do so.

In June I told about getting actual pounds of bacon at a funky little store at the beach for $2 each. Today I stopped there again, needing more marrow bones for my girls, and that bacon had gone up fifty cents. However, they had three pound packages of bacon ends and pieces, of which I am very fond, for $5! These are always high-quality bacon, and the larger pieces are heavenly for split pea soup.

In the little town out there, today pork ribs were on sale for $1.49 per pound, and I bought a family pack with eight thick meaty ribs for $5.62. That's four meals, very very nice meals, for a bargain price.

A person just has to look, and think, and compare. Doesn't take all that long and when you find a bargain, grab it!

The chicken a couple days ago and now these ribs - whereas I haven't purchased meat in some time, but it will be so heavenly knowing it's all in the freezer, when beans and rice are tiresome!

It's true, Cyberpunk, that if one shops wisely, then looks at pantry and freezer, suddenly it seems there are riches of food! And it came so easily! We just have to be thoughtful, careful, and think outside the box. Foods at the beach should be and generally are considerably more expensive than in town, but taking care to look, I made out very nicely!

I'd like to find a place such as a feed store to get a large bag or two of wheat, and I was just reading in another thread about doing so - someone gets all their grains at the feed store, which would be far cheaper.

Glad you have those discounts, my friend! Every bit helps and I feel sure you will eat well, and so will your grandchildren as they grow up! I'm a long, long way from that - I don't have even a year's worth yet, much less the two that I believe is the minimum we should have today, but a little at a time . . .

I've no idea of your meaning. Known about what since the 80s? The 2019 flooded farmlands? Contingency? And why should we be so afraid?

Cog? Coop ops? Mobility when gardening? Please tell us the meanings of your statements.

Continuity of Gov.
Contiuity of Operations

Both of which I have actively participated in.

Mobility as you survive while in the continuous move.

Yes, the us govt has been aware of solar activity and the forecast into the 21 century and cooling affect on crops.


Do not occupy your time with the bullshit patriotism, tariffs or other non essential shit. Carefully plan what you will need in a MOBILE situation. It is coming. They will take your wespons. They will take stock piled food. They will arrest dissenters. They will do whatever is necessary to continue the operations of government. They will suspend all constitutional rights.

The bullshit ra ra talk on this site and others makes me puke. They have no fucking clue what us coming. You should be scared... what I talked about is less than 1% of what they do...

Coincidence that all these reports of food shortages and prices rising happening at the same time that the dollar is about to be devalued and lose global reserve status? I think not.

No it is not. This was one method advised on how to disarm the populace. Simple, really. Food vouchers for guns or weapons.

... but like I said it's been known since the 80s... takes lots of money to build 1000 year vaults...

When in the course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.
— That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed,
— That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.

Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed.

But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.

Your wall if text is not going to happen. While the fat majority have been slowly boiled in the pot of diminishing rights, big brother has been busy.
