.) There are certainly a lot of details like that to take into consideration. That is a great point to bring up. I offer the thoughts above as general inspiration but clearly there are questions like the one you bring up where the most important thing will be working in honest good faith. I don?t know if best practices have emerged around things like that, but I am sure that your job is clearly identified as a fair game. Both boys and girls feel the impact of just a moment’s pleasure, for the rest of their lives.

Eat What You Grow, Grow What You Eat?
Sharon July 6th, 2009

A thought experiment:

Due to a combination of crises – maybe a volcano explosion, the penetration of Ug99 into the main of the world wheat crop, drought in many of the world’s grain growing regions, zombie invasion etc… the world experiences a catastrophic failure of its staple crops. All of a sudden grain supplies drop like a stone, and there are none to be had in the market. No bread, no rice, no soybeans or corn – none of those products are available in the markets.

At first, there is panic. The government institutes a ban on the feeding of anything but grass and hay to livestock, necessitating a massive butchering of most national stock, which raises cholesterol levels but keeps people from starving initially.

Then we begin a rapid inventory of what crops survived, and what foods are available to feed the hungry. For caloric density, there is little that can match grains, but we do what we can. The national potato crop was poor, but what there is of that provides

i planted orange, grapefruit and lemon seeds in used coffee grounds for years and got hundreds of seedlings and some survived the 10 year and produce fruits in my tiny desert yard and i thing agriculture experiements should be required gramma school classes with time allococated to the expansions and productions and needs required for that as a futures hedge and a method of getting something personally in my “greedy” little state from the huge school taxes I pay

As another Alaskan, the choices of what will grow are, yes, somewhat limited. I use as much of my yard as possible for staple foods and am now expanding into more marginal areas. For instance, shady or out-of-sun areas are good for mint, for comfrey, edible ferns (mind you, they are usually supressive of other plants) and for aegopodium podagraria (in russian, ‘sneet’, an edible green but also an invasive weed in sunny areas). If one grows a large bed of mint it won’t feed your family, but it is a pleasant drink and mild stomach medicinal, and can be gifted or traded to neighbors. My strategy is to grow and gift or trade as much food as possible to my friends and neighbors, exchanging for fish, game, help, etc. We don’t have to do it all ourselves!

Moringa — sometimes called the tree of life — is part of the solution. Some say this is the most nutritious tree in the world.
