Gardening VS Prepping: Who Wins When Shortages Threaten Food Security
In the last few years, the makeup of our world and society has changed dramatically. Food prices have gone up and availability has gone down. With more food shortages potentially on the horizon, what is the best way to guarantee ourselves food security?
This video is a bit impromptu and are solely my opinion on what we should all be doing to prepare for the potential of food shortages.
I’ve noticed over the years the the two groups, preppers and gardeners, seem to but heads quite a bit. I don’t understand why that should be the case, so here I lay out what I see as the uniting force between both preppers and gardeners; Food Security. It’s what we are all after and with food shortages already happening, now is a great time to see eye-to-eye and discuss methods of bringing our ideas to others.
