Eating off the land

Today I had my breakfast in my yard, yes I guess you could say I went out to eat. One great thing about this breakfast is it was free, and healthy! I am learning and teaching how to identify wild edible plants. You should too!

Study and Learn all the wild edible plants

After you have studied out the wild edible plants and have someone who knows what they are doing show you how to find them it is time to prepare your body to get used to them. Practice identifying edible and poisonous plants. Never eat a poisonous plant. When you know for sure what you have and are able to identify edible plants eat some. Get your body used to eating off the land. One way to start is find dandelions. You can easily identify dandelions and they are great for your body. You can also dry out the dandelion root and make a dandelion tea, or coffee. Don't wait until you have to escape to the woods and bring your wild edible plant book to try and identify what you can consume. Start today, go on a hike and start recognizing different plants that are beneficial to you.

March on to Spring Preparedness

March has finally arrived and it is time to be getting all your seeds together, planning your garden plots and starting some seeds inside. I am going to get my tomato plants started this week. Not all of them because I don't want them all ready at the same time. I will gradually start my inside garden and it will be so much fun.

Seeds

I got my seeds ordered and delivered. You should have a good supply of seeds. A variety of different seeds. If times get tough you will have your garden to eat out of. Usually there is enough for the neighbors too! When you can't go to the store and buy food you may be able to sell some of your garden food also. Buy lots and lots of seeds.

Going Solar

I have been reading articles and watching videos about going solar. This looks like the way to go if you are really wanting to live off the grid. I have not figured it all out yet, and I like the looks of a wind turbine but the wind in southern Indiana would not produce much power. You should study out your area before thinking you can make a lot of energy off a wind turbine. Now the northern part of Indiana has alot more wind so you might be able to get some energy going up there.

Deer Hunting Stock UP

Deer hunting season is in and this is a great time to stock up on some deer jerky. End time survival jerky! This stuff tastes great and would be a treat if you didn't have anything to eat while trying to survive in the wild. You would not have to cook it and draw attention to your get away spot it would already be cooked and ready to eat. A MUST!
