I could do both if needed.Having a garden is a good idea for there would be no GMO's ,pesticides in the fruits and vegetables.Also with home baked bread,I could eliminate the salt for I use no salt in my food thus have to cook from scratch,and use little processed foods that are filled with salt.
-
Yes, I know all that....but I would also need a property in order to have a garden. I bake my own bread already for a long time.
-
No because I don't eat vegetables and no because i don't eat bread, but I would be really pleased about being able to go back to my local butcher, green grocers and village farm shop which have all suffered because of big supermarkets. I try to use them now but sometimes for convenience and cost of getting to them I use the supermarket.

I have no clue, but I guess your assuming we have gas for the stove to bake. How can we grow when we find out that a majority of groundwater is contaminated.
-
Sure do. Have done it before. Just get that old sourdough mixture started!
-
I would love to do that. We would need more room for a garden though...we've had wonderful gardens in the past. I already bake lots of breads we eat. I'll just fire up the old bread machine and get rolling! Nice Question!!

Yes, and raise animals for dairy or meat. I've done the homesteading/pioneering thing, back to nature way of living for more than half my life. We used to grow most of what we ate and I always made everything from scratch, including all our baked goods, breads, bagels, cookies, even milk and cheese we made at home.

Yes to both, though as gardens take time to grow and one might not always have an oven, or similar appliance, having a good store of ready to eat foods is a good idea. Indeed, in something like a nuclear exchange, a room full of dry and canned goods might be worth more than an acre of land.

I am beginning to think that I might need to go back to the days of organizing community gardens, here in the city. I did that back 40 years ago. It's time to do it again, isn't it?
-
Yes, I do. I have an emergency cabinet fully stocked with food and water. I also know how to bargain, exchange and share, all of which can come in handy in tough times.
-
Yup, sure do. But don't worry, President Obama will magically fix EVERYTHING. (cough cough wheeze choke)
-
Nope. Haven't got a clue how to do any of that stuff. If industrial society were to collapse, I'm gonna die.
