We feel it is wise to have a back up, and we have for many years. <br /><br />Good question. Hope this helps.<br /><br />FernFrank and Fernhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15570058990887565563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7003348645601520194.post-47726808534710840202013-10-25T21:03:50.980-05:002013-10-25T21:03:50.980-05:00Fern, I was wondering if you have all your storage...Fern, I was wondering if you have all your storage and prep in foods you have prepped yourselves or if you also have purchased prepped food like freeze dried and dehydrated. I guess I am interested because I live in town and can't possibly do all that you are able to and didn't know if even people on farms needed to supplement their supply also.

I couldn't stand the waste one more harvest so I went over an asked them if I could have some apples. I came home and got our ladder and got two boxes of beautiful DARK red apples. It is a secure feeling isn't it...to make and have your own food.<br />Fionahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05348495575211204989noreply@blogger.com
