Eating only what I grow myself for a year – is that possible? And is it really possible to survive without a supermarket?
That's exactly what I'm trying to do with my self-sufficiency challenge:
Every week, I'll show you what I harvest, preserve, and cook.
I'm allowed to buy a few basics like grains, pulses, oil, salt, and sugar – I'll also use up my remaining store-bought supplies. Everything else has to come from my garden.
In this video, you can see my first week of my self-sufficiency challenge.
I'm still allowed to use up my existing store-bought supplies, which meant it wasn't that difficult for me the first week, of course, but I've already run out of the first few products, and I'll have to get creative and find alternatives to chewed-up foods. I'm also a bit nervous about the winter months and whether I'll have enough vegetables, so I've sown some more and, of course, preserved a lot of things!
