WorldWIDE! If you want to have food to eat ongoing it might be time to find land to grow food on somewhere whether you own it or not

For example, I have friends that grow 70% of what they eat on only 2 1/2 acres of land. Of course these friends are from the Back to the Land movement of the 1960s through the 1980s. I myself bought land as a part of this Back to the Land Movement in 1980 myself and kept this land until 1989. However, it is also true that the 7 feet of snow every winter or more was difficult in some ways where we had to tow a bobsled with cross country skis to get from our 4 wheel drive to our house with our food or whatever else we bought. So, though we were young enough to do this (I was 32 and my wife then the same and the kids were 5 to 9 years old and they all had their own cross country skis I likely couldn't live like this today at 78 years old either. So, we had to be young and strong (all of us) to live this sort of life.

And a few years ago a friend who was still alive out there (who passed away about 2 years ago now in his 80s had about 12 feet of snow on his land from about January or February until June or July of likely 2024 that year where he couldn't even see out of his ground floor windows and had to go up one story to even see outside at all. He kept his road open to his land (2 1/2 acres) with a snow blower.

And even my friend who lives in the city of Mt. Shasta up on the mountain uses a snow blower on his 2 1/2 acres to be able to get his cars out of his land when it snows there now and he is about 75 years old and his girlfriend about 60.

But, the point I'm making here is that if you want food to eat worldwide during these times you might have to grow this food yourselves as long as you have good water and good weather and good soil.

So, just remember I have friends that now grow 70% of what they eat all year long and they also have a greenhouse for keeping some things alive even through all the snow during the winter there.

So, if you can get some land to grow food on either rent or buy it might be a good idea now worldwide to survive better these times we presently live on with gas and diesel and food prices as high as they are.

Another thing people did during the Great Depression which is what Trump is creating for people worldwide too is that people bought sewing machines and sewed their own clothes.

For example, I remember in 1976 my then wife bought a Frostline Kit and sewed up a Down Vest for me to stay warm in Mt. Shasta then in 1976. So, even during the 1970s people saved money to survive those times too like we did as young people then. IN 1974 when my son was born I was 26 years old living then in Mt. Shasta with my 1st wife.

By God's Grace
