OUTSTANDING reply too what is going to happen...I live in basically a rural area but there is home building going on (Central Florida) that with this inflation...ppl won't be able to buy the house(s) that are going up...like pancakes!!!!!!!!
There are going tobe some builders who are going to regret NOT thinking OUTSIDE the box even for a lil' bit!!!!
I spent about $60 in seeds earlier this year and harvested about $15 worth of tomatoes, squashes, radishes, carrots, and green beans :) (it was a test to see what would grow in my limited sunlight garden area; this year I hope to only spend $15 on seeds to get $15 of produce :) )
Of course growing your own is cheaper. A hoe, shovel, and rake are about the only required tools. Buy heirloom seeds one time only and save seeds thereafter. If you are in the country, use a burn barrel to burn trash. Use the ashes by spreading them down between your rows of tomatoes. Compost all your yard waste, garden plants after all the harvest is done, eggshells, and coffee grounds to use as fertilizer. Find someone with horses and offer to take some horse manure off their hands and compost that at home for your garden.
I'd say little more than $200 in one-time expenses and some hard work will supply all your vegetables forever. I would also plant some fruit trees. Once established, they will bear for many years without much work.
Just bought a Mockmill. First 2 loaves of sourdough in the oven as I type this. Made from ancient grains. Starter inoculated with milk kefir. My goal is to make sourdough sandwich bread for the kids lunches.
This inflation is killer, but looking on the bright side - maybe this will force people to stop eating that GMO garbage.

Unfortunately, the non-GMO food in the grocery stores costs way more than the factory/GMO food.
I think he was saying grow your own.
When all is said and done I wonder if growing your own is really cheaper

I just used cereal as an example. Everything has been going up.
Who the fuck eats cereal? Processed cardboard with added sugar, corn syrup, salt, flavoring, coloring and preservatives.
Edit: and Roundup with glyphosate.
He said an example. There are millions eating cereal, or it wouldn't be stocked in the grocery store.

Excellent! My German neighbor bakes this bread for me. And we get sheep's milk direct from the farmer.
