Ha! 5'10" 165. But when you feed 2 teenage boys, it takes a lot of food. Seriously though, 90 plants will feed us for a year. I have raised that many before, just to see what it would take to get us through a year. 4 or 5 deer and a beef as well. Glad I live where I do.



I probably don't want to eat people after all. But, some canned gravy would help?

Sounds cool. Do any canning? I gotta get on it and get some deer and elk put up. It'll last a long time, a decade I bet.

Seriously thinking though how easy it would be to get burned out. Or just how futile it'd be if the planet went dark for a year or two. Maybe the Mormons got it right, 3 months?

If we go dark, no power for a year or more, all bets are off. 90% won't make it.
