It grows back so fast, I doubt they'll ever run out.

We just put in an orchard last weekend and added 3 raised beds to the garden. I plan to can my own fruits and veggies this summer instead of freezing it.

Already stock piled dry goods like rice and flour, along with stuff like buillion and seasonings.

Just need some chickens and rabbits and we'll be fine for many months. Ya'll stop by for breakfast if you can get past the armed guards at the bridge. grin

The Boy's from Mcneil Island will be very greatful after they over power the guards...stock up on plenty of smokes. lol
