Noo... I wouldn't starve, the internet is a wonderful thing. I could learn. That and my Grandad is a fantastic veggie-grower. I am sure he would help out!

I would starve. I would be at the mercy of food banks (if they have food) or others.
-
I can grow food. That's not a problem. I don't need a whole gigantic farm going on. It really takes a lot to "starve".
-
I think I would be ok. I have a small garden and I grow a lot of my own vegetables and herbs already.

Growing food is easy The problems are: Buying seed or livestock Finding a place to grow or raise them Protecting that place if things are as bad as you say
-
I already grow a lot of my own food can it and freeze it, I also hunt and have a small farm. So I'm ok and would be.

I grow most of my vegetables,and some fruit. I mainly drink water,and I could live without meat. So,I think I would be ok.
-
I would learn. And maybe one day I will. But I doubt that would happen.

I'd be able to grow my own food....even from just a seed. Me and my father used to save the seeds from the crops the year before dry them out...and replant them, including... okra, tomatoes, peppers, beans...and the bulbs from onions, and garlic...we would grow potatoes and corn. He finds it very important to grow your own food. Incase something like that happened. Its been passed on to my daughter also. Plus my husbands father was the same way, always planted his own gardens...hes a farmer too, so he knows how to raise animals. So I think well be ok. lol.
