Help everyone in your community or neighborhood to start a garden. Share some seeds.
As I told my husband, we are gardening / urban farming this year like never before. To see how far we can take things. And go on a seed saving binge.
Someday, people may need to be shown how to do it
I subscribe to more gardening channels on YT than anything else. And binge watch regularly.
Amen. I thank my grandmother and grandfather for all they taught me. I also learned how to recognize 'wild' asparagus, but I now have a bed of my own, and 'poke salat' which has to be parboiled, drained, and clean water added to finish cooking. I have wild blackberries all over my hillside with a pond, deer bed down up there, rabbits and squirrels galore and plenty of room for a cow and hog. Also have an old chicken house that my husband and I are planning on cleaning out and repairing for some chickens. God provides the way.
In Michigan wild asparagus is along every fence line in every field. We eat a ton of it in the spring.
You're very lucky. I used to be able to find it too, but then we had a lot of Amish move into our area and poof! it was all gone.

This also goes along with doing ones own baking and curing of meats. It is NOT hard and it is fun to do. Esp. if your neighbors are involved.
I like getting back to when a hobo would come to the back porch and my mother/dad would feed them and give them money for a bus ticket...WOWZA!!!
Exactly. Today's youth wouldn't know how to do it. They need to quit dying their hair and tattooing themselves up and learn how to 'survive' not how to 'fit in.'
My husband will normally pick up a hitchhiker; I asked him not to, that is usually looking tired and down on his luck and will drop him off in the next town. He usually will give him or them (one time it was a man and wife) a bit of money for coffee and a sandwich.
I was thinking the other day how victory gardens were promoted during WWII but the liberals now talk about food shortages and never mention growing your own. Because they just want to scare you, not actually encourage you to prepare.
In my hometown, according to my mother, the fire whistle went off every day at noon (still does) and the few stores in town closed for an hour. Everyone went home and worked on their victory gardens during lunch hour.
One more tip - if you want to save seeds, make sure you get non-hybrid plants or seeds. Many of the heirlooms are non-hybrid but not all. For example, Rutgers tomatoes are considered an heirloom but are hybrid. Brandywine and Hillbilly are not hybrids.
Thanks for sharing that fren. Gardening is great for the soul too. :)
Agreed, however there's a caveat. In the Midwest, think milk and cheese and potatoes, anyways, we are seeing every single day the influx of jetliners leaving behind them not contrails but chemtrails. If possible, create a greenhouse with a roof. Chemical testing of soils finds heavy metals as well as other garbage that doesn't belong. This is no theory. Beware the flying metal that leave spider webs in the sky. In the end days the skies will be like webs, catching not prey but humanity.
Carry On!!!
I like your greenhouse idea!
it's my intention to do some serious studying on gardening next week on vacation in sunny Aruba :) my rough plan is to buy seedlings from an organic supplier and get them started indoors until it'll be warm enough to plant outside here in the northeast. any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Courgettes (Zucchini) and also beans are great yield for the space. Tomatos are also fab.
If you have time and space, invest in some asparagus roots. It will take 3 years to reap the rewards, but might be worth it.
Oh, and if you grow some mint, keep it in pot, or it will go mad.
Have fun fren and best of luck :)
I grew kale year round one year by dropping an old fishtank over it upside down for a mini greenhouse. If you try this, prop up one side slightly for air circulation.
thx. we'd be happy with these to harvest. onions, potatoes and would kale be nice additions !
