Re: Food; how long could you go
I have several hundred pounds of dried goods, like grains, beans, lentils, as well as lots of pasta, seasoning/flavouring mixes, I've started to grow Tomatoes, and am preparing to grow other "indoor" foods like peppers.
I'll be getting a good headstart on starting a spring garden in pots indoors as the winter winds down. (for transplanting outdoors)
I could manage a good six months with no grocery stores. Lots of water, and ability to clean more. lots of stored vitamins. we don't need or use medicines, so far.
I sprout and juice wheat grass every day, which together with a maintenance dose of MMS keeps the doctor away better than any apple I've ever seen.
Lots of empty pots and lots of potting soil.
Canadian winters complicate some planning options open in tropical climates, but we're confidently chasing down our nearest approach to self sufficiency.
