IMO: The movie we've been watching since March 2020 has been meant to illustrate to normies what it is that these people actually advocate for. Until enough people wake up. Once that critical mass is reached, it is game over.
I think the DS just realized that their own doubling down on continued failure is making them poll badly even among their own sheep. Your seeing cracks in the dams holding back the truth.
It doesnt matter if you've been here for a month or 20 years (awake). We can all see whats happening and things are becoming apparent to more people at a much higher pace these days. Its as if a giant spell is being lifted across the whole world.
It is too late now, any attempts to deflect and cover up will be consumed by the avalanche of truth that is almost here now.... Keep spreading the truth!
What does it matter if a trucker is vaccinated or not. Who does he come in contact with when he delivers his load of goods? A couple of people? THEY can be vaccinated and that's that.
LOL.... we all know how well the toxic sludge vaccines work, right!!! add that to the completely useless masks and 6 feet distancing rule.. the rona has no chance....
Let us not forget a certain Mr. Gates has acquired millions of acres of prime agricultural land over the last few years, enough to influence global markets.
If you have at least 6 hours of full sun in your yard it’s really fulfilling to grow your own vegetables. Learn how to preserve what you buy at the store or grow yourself for long term storage (fermentation, canning), such a useful skill and feels good man
I grew up in a family that grew vegetables and made freezing and 'preserves' to last through the winter. I watched my mom and dad toil in the hot sun and scramble to prepare and preserve the food so it did not spoil. They raised organic food even before the term was coined. For many years, I grew a garden also. I improved on the method for growing vegetables that my parents never knew about. While they plowed the garden and exposed it, I learned from "Back to Eden" that planting in wood chips eliminated the need for watering and fertilizing. I learned that just like in the animal kingdom, predator insects attacked the weak and the young plants while leaving the healthy plants alone. Depleted soils produced weakened plants. Wood chips replenish the soil like glacial dust does and produce hearty and healthy plants. All store bought vegetables, even the organic ones, lack minerals in the soil they are raised in and are not in optimal balance as wild plants are.
Because of the amount of work when harvesting comes, I have stopped gardening. The biggest obstacle is the harvest. When the harvest is ready, it seems that all the vegetables come in at the same time. I recall having to give away vegetables because I couldn't keep up with processing them for preservation. Tomatoes, cucumbers, squash, peppers, spinach, etc. ALL have different methods for preservation. It's a lot of work!! And demands an 'All hands on deck' mentality.
Growing a garden is a lot of monitoring and nursing. The harvest is the beginning of the real work. It happens all at once and preserving the food takes knowledge, skill, sweat, stress, and a lot of hands to get er' all done.
You need to stagger the plantings of your vegetables. For example, plant part of them one week and then more a week or two later. You can also choose varieties that take more or less time to mature.
With tomatoes, you can choose indeterminate varieties. They come off slow and steady as long as the weather is warm enough. Determinate varieties come off all at once.
Everything you listed can be canned in jars, except for the spinach, so I don't see the necessity for any other preservation method. I wouldn't depend on a freezer for vegetables. Dehydrating takes too long, unless you have a large outdoor setup. The electric dehydrators for your kitchen take too long, and if you have only one, you can't dehydrate much at one time.
You can put up a lot of food in jars in just a day, if you plan things out. I would help my mother peeling and canning tomatoes when I was younger. On those, we used a simpler method. Cook the tomatoes in open pots, as many as you have. Then fill the sterilized jars and seal. We could go through a whole washtub full of tomatoes by the afternoon. It didn't take "all hands on deck" either, just my mother and me. And she did most of the work.
Practice and watch YouTube videos to see how other people can food in mass quantities.
Thanks. It's good advice. As you know there's many variables, including time, and all those unforeseen hazards. At times, I think I knew the weather forecast better than the weather stations did. Everything from bad seeds, to the weather, to birds, to...... and of course the latitude and elevation, and more play a factor to these variables. I've done what you wrote in the past. For the avg. individual who works in an office and away from home, having a wife and kids, time is a limiting factor too.
I've grown veggies all the way into January covering the plants at night with plastic sheeting and had to be always vigilant of the temperature. Making use of clear plastic and assuring the plastic never touched the plants, and brushing the snow off when it required was all very memorable. All of this in my opinion, doesn't really compare to the work of harvesting, preparing, and preserving those vegetables. Blanching of tomatoes, peeling the skins off them to can them, picking all of those small cucumbers, washing them, sterilizing, having ample apple vinegar, and assuring the 'right' amount of ingredients for all the pickling batches, etc. is a lot of work! Then there is assuring having adequate space to store them.
I had raspberry plants that were very 'invasive' and easily escaped their confines, but man did they ever produce. Almost every day, I picked those berries and harvested them by washing them and putting them in freezer bag, after freezer bag, and having to do this every week in the summer. There were two productive cycles in the summer for these. I'd easily get 15 freezer bags full of raspberries each year. From those I'd make the best jam anywhere. I had a strawberry garden as well. I'd make strawberry jam. I'd add just enough lemon juice to bring out the flavor of those strawberries. The kids love it. Neighbors would ask me for my recipe. I'd oblige them and would give it to them, but they never used it because buying it from a grocery store was more convenient for them. The same was true when I had too much of a vegetable coming in at once. I'd give the neighbors the surplus as an act of kindness. I could have easily just let it all rot and throw it away, but that's not how I think. Not once was the favor ever returned in all the years I lived there. There was a mulberry tree that grew in back of my yard. I use to get several freezer bags full of mulberries too. The way I looked at it. if I didn't pick those mulberries, the birds would and they'd get drunk on them. A couple times birds flew into my glass window and bounced off. I was helping those little fellows out by picking all those mulberries. I'd put out bird seed feeders and had several bird houses all around the house. I made mulberry jam as well. With the frozen bags of raspberries, strawberries, and mulberries, I use to make smoothies. My wife and kids loved these smoothies for a while, but their tastes changed and at soon fell out of fashion. We use to make pancakes using these as well.
There's more, but I mainly ran the entire show. It's great to have help when you're trying to bypass the need for corporate big top grocery stores.
Comments all over prepping sites about food shortages. Have seen none in my area, NONE. If you drill down comments it's often about a shortages at Walmart and specifically on frozen meals, junk food IOW.
Have been to 4 markets (all different chains) in last week and nothing looked short. Each one had fully stocked meat areas, multiple types not one type spread around to fill up space. I do most of the marketing because I do most of the cooking and the only time I've seen any overt food shortages (flour, yeast, powdered milk, oats) was 2020, March - May, all driven by media & panic buying. Price increases different story, nearly everything has gone up, way up in some cases.
I suppose your area is special. The stores in my area have lots of empty shelves. Sure, some of them are in the frozen food, but most of the empty shelves are regular groceries.
Quarts of milk have been short or out every time we've gone to the store for months now. I like to get quarts in paper cartons, because I don't go through milk very fast, and the milk lasts a lot longer in paper cartons. Just look at the date codes on paper versus plastic cartons at the store.
Beef hasn't been on shortage here, because they jacked up the price so much that most people can't afford to buy it. They've switched to pork and chicken, which has caused them to go on shortage.
Everyone needs to stock up on foods that will last a long time.
Yep, TJs & Aldi fine around me. I'd like more people to comment with their geographic area. I don't doubt there are shortages but wonder on the mechanics of it. Would bet they are near the end of the distribution & producer lines so transportation probems magnify it.
One viable reason was to open everything up, maybe they figure that they have created enough numbers of vaxxed spreaders, that would then catch any stragglers ?
I heard a radio interview with some economists decades ago that I never forgot. They said throughout history, all over the world, populations were pushed around with war, disease, loss of rights, etc. The one and only thing that made them freak out and go after their rulers was the loss of food. That empty stomach is the line you don’t cross, if you’re a leader that wants to stay in power.
I live in East Texas and we have some bare areas in the grocery stores. Pasta aisle is bad. Sections of frozen food are gone. I tried to buy frozen biscuits last night. None. Found refrigerated biscuits but only one kind was available. We have seen empty milk sections. None of this is catastropic but it signals problems.
resident is forcefully in enforcing "ports of entry" as fully vaccinated but the open border crisis is ignored. Disgusting !
Clown world.

#WWG1WGA #NCSWIC.
Just call the truck drivers refugees.
Problem solved
What state does your friend live in, if you don’t mind me asking?
They need them ‘legals to pick cotton z
Darn familiar, isn't it?
The only difference between the vaccinated and unvaxxed is that neither will be fully vaxxed. So the ports can never be fully opened.
That is exactly i was going to say.

They have to keep coming up with reasons and continue their plan to control us little sheeple.
Why is this mandate not overturned with the rest?

Love reading this! Thanks for sharing.
I loved my gardens. Of all the skills I've ever worked on my gardens wer the most enjoyable.
I look forward to being g in. A place where I can do it again.
Right on brother, I encourage any and all to strive to be as self sufficient as they can

It doesn’t mean food shortages aren’t coming.
And it’s different in different states. Small town Pennsylvania has a lot of shortages still.
I never said nor implied otherwise. I said in my area.
Where in PA do you live? I've got places all over the place here if you need recommendations. I've been shopping small since before it was cool lol

Apparently so, northeast US.
Same here. Trader Joe's had a couple of items MIA but otherwise grocery stores have been fine around me too.
Yep, TJs & Aldi fine around me. I'd like more people to comment with their geographic area. I don't doubt there are shortages but wonder on the mechanics of it. Would bet they are near the end of the distribution & producer lines so transportation probems magnify it.
If you have a Dollar General near you, try there for the quarts of milk. Shelf stable, in the aisle with canned foods and coconut milk.
I live in the US. Of course there's a Dollar General near me. :)
Actually, I think there are three or four of them around here. They're popping up everywhere.
I'll have to check out that milk.
One viable reason was to open everything up, maybe they figure that they have created enough numbers of vaxxed spreaders, that would then catch any stragglers ?
Legitimate, employed people from Mexico, who support their economy, as well as our economy are barred
But illegal, unemployed people from anywhere, who are a burden to our economy and welfare system cannot be questioned or detained
Let’s Go Brandon

(((They're))) going to keep doing it until we stop them from doing it
I don’t remember the specific prediction of 2022 summer. Got a link op?
