'Surviving off my garden for 30 days' was an eye opener. Thanks for showing us it takes more than you think. Even with him fishing and foraging outside of his garden, he still lost 13 lbs in a month. That's staggering!
It might be good time to start adding edible fish in your pond if you plan on doing this again ๐
I think people dont realise how effective farming is on a mass scale rather than an individual. We really should be supporting local farming more for better quality, accessibility and pricing of food.
"so anyways i found spawning fish in the middle of the night at 3am-"
Nice! That's a hard pass on the freeway fish for me tho : )
This is the reason why our farmers and agricultural system deserves more appreciation, it's quite easy to nag and complain about every little thing with food in our stomachs, without our food supply, none of the other things matter.
โCan i survive off of this urban gardenโ sells the plants for money and buys McDonalds
This is how you survive in the sims 4 when doing a rags to riches
You have my favourite word, BARTER, do it for Everything! Will need to watch all your videos in the coming days.
While looking like an insane person. ๐๐
You could also consider growing cactus. You can eat the young leaves and the prickly pears and it's low maintenance.
This was a pretty good try for only 90 days worth of prep! @homegrownhandgathered has a series of living off the land where I think they forage and gather all year long & then challenge themselves to survive off what theyโve gathered for as long as they can (within comfortability). Itโd be cool to see you collab or give each other recs on how to prep for upcoming winters ๐
Gives you an idea how fast our society will collapse when the food supply stops
Bro really earned himself $900 back from groceries ๐๐๐
We went from survive off of a garden to going to a random fucking beach on a full moon for fish
This really goes to show how far we have come to secure food sources. It really makes me appreciate what we have today and hope the system doesn't fail. You did great, you had a really smart approach!
You can use a vertical layering system for your potatoes. Use a post and chain fence for the body in the shape of a cylinder, and layer the potatoes for a better yield per square foot. :) Hope it helps!
Iโm on 2/3โs acre near Pomona. In SoCal. Just butchered my first pigs!! They grow quick. Loved this!!
My local middle school has crab apple trees in their parking lot. They may have been considered decorative, but I pick a BUNCH and made over 2 dozen jars of crab apple butter. It's very good!
