Another Pandemic Headed Our Way?

And also, where i live, you have to have permit from the county to build anything extra on YOUR OWN land, which pisses me off to the max! We have already met our quota on extra buildings on our land, so the emergency food supply was the next best option. It takes up little space out of sight behind my kitchen table.

My dad had a hot house when I was growing up. He grew tomatoes and other veggies in the winter time. Man, it was hot in there! It could double as a sauna, if needed. My sister and I used to have to go down after school every day and water the plants. But the reward of the great tasting food was worth it.

I have had serious problems for the last two years with my garden. My brother, the master gardener is also fighting a major battle with his gardens. The climate has changed, and wrecking havoc on our gardens. I have been experimenting with different placing of plants, and believe it or not, I am having better luck with the plants that I don't weed. It is harder to keep up with their growth, but at least they are not cooking on the vine.

I am also having much better luck with the container gardens than those planted in ground. So you don't need a lot of land to have a successful garden any more. In fact, my land based gardens are not producing well at all. 

You don't even need seeds. Just place those vegetable ends that you normally throw in the trash, and stick them into a pot. Your garbage garden will be feeding you in no time.
