This planting season will be the first one that we've had this site running so you can expect a lot of posts from us on our gardens! Each of us will be writing posts showing you how we grow our gardens and we'll hopefully have some great guest author posts as well.
Prepping - it's an endless activity that has few rewards, and those rewards often are not close in payout to the amount of time and effort that went into them. The interim rewards in prepping include not having to run to the store constantly to keep your food stocked. When you're a Prepper your grocery store is in your own house, going to an actual store is akin to going to a warehouse to get resupplied. The other reward is great personal satisfaction and comfort in knowing that you are ready for anything - well, almost ready - there's ALWAYS something else that can be done. The big payoff rarely comes for a Prepper - and that is when things get bad enough that you're able to make it through it solely because you were prepped. This lifestyle, with it's small rewards and rare big payoff, can be tiring - even overwhelming at times.
It's getting to be harvest season, which means plenty of work around my household trying to preserve some of what we've grown. Because of our love for flavorful food, we've tried to expand the variety of Herbs around our household over the last several years. Herbs are an excellent way to expand the flavor of those rice and beans we've all been stuffing into our long term storage. Those wonderful foods that make up such a major part of our plans will become quite monotonous though, if we cant' get some flavor variety in them.
