Howdy folks!
How have you been? It’s been busy here, as usual, and I’m writing this post a few months before it will actually publish so in real life I’ve just planted my winter garden. I’m pretty excited as this as I haven’t actually done this before but I am looking forward to having fresh veggies in the next month or two!
I love to garden so for me I don’t see this as part of a ‘prepper’ thing but for many people learning to garden is part of their emergency preparations. I am always looking for new suggestions on ways to better prepare our family for emergencies. We recently had two really bad hurricanes (Helene and Milton) that caused a lot of devastation in widespread areas.
Fortunately, we were not severely affected by either one but it did show us some ‘weak’ areas that we needed to fix. After Hurricane Debby (before Helene) we lost a freezer which made us realize that frozen foods would not be a very sustainable option in a long-term emergency.
While we aren’t supposed to live in fear I do feel that the Bible tells us to be prepared. Joseph helped Egypt prepare for the famine that was to come and helped save a lot of people.
