I wonder if the current situation we find ourselves in has caused anyone to learn how to or to restart canning garden veggies etc.


has this been a wake up call for anyone?

I got dinty moore and campbells chunky along with wolf brand chile and ranch style beans so I am good.

I haven't got that bored yet.

I was just wondering if there might not be a run on garden seed. Might be a good idea to get your seeds now in case.

I was just wondering if anyone had seen a need to learn how to survive without kroger/h.e.b. etc.
with all the tp hoarding, what good is it if there is nothing to require its use?

Mostly, we have learnEd to enjoy cooking and eating more meals at home. Not ready to start canning vegetables or milking a cow, but cooking a meal at home is pretty satisfying. You really have to search for any silver lining to this disaster.

Lol, you just admitted on the other thread you have 250 rolls of TP, wth?

I got veggies too. just sayin.


fiber is good!

My wife has been doing this for years. We have chickens, pigs, a few cattle, a big garden, bees, etc.

She even makes our soap, hand sanitizer, shampoos, etc.

I CAN provide fish, but never keep any.

Home grown food tastes better, IMO.

Searched online...

No bacon seeds available.

I got some.

I am going to type on my Corona typewriter

I bought 15 packs of cucumber seed. Does that count?

So who is the first TFFer who is going to get busted spending the night hiding out in a grocery store hoping to buy toilet paper and other essentials when the store opens?

No. I am to set in my ways.

The preacher man says it's the end of time
And the Mississippi River, she's a-goin' dry
The interest is up and the stock market's down
And you only get mugged if you go downtown
I live back in the woods you see
My woman and the kids and the dogs and me
I got a shotgun a rifle and a four-wheel drive
And a country boy can survive
Country folks can survive
I can plow a field all day long
I can catch catfish from dusk till dawn (Yeah)
We make our own whiskey and our own smoke too
Ain't too many things these old boys can't do
We grow good ole tomatoes and homemade wine
And a country boy can survive
Country folks can survive
Because you can't stomp us out and you can't make us run
'Cause we're them old boys raised on shotguns
We say grace, and we say ma'am
If you ain't into that, we don't give a damn
We came from the West Virginia coal mines
And the Rocky Mountains, and the western skies
And we can skin a buck, we can run a trout line
And a country boy can survive
Country folks can survive
I had a good friend in New York City
He never called me by my name, just Hillbilly
My grandpa taught me how to live off the land
And his taught him to be a businessman
He used to send me pictures of the Broadway nights
And I'd send him some homemade wine
But he was killed by a man with a switchblade knife
For forty-three dollars my friend lost his life
I'd love to spit some Beech-Nut in that dude's eyes
And shoot him with my old forty-five
'Cause a country boy can survive
Country folks can survive
'Cause you can't stomp us out and you can't make us run
'Cause we're them old boys raised on shotguns
We say grace, and we say ma'am
If you ain't into that, we don't give a damn
We're from north California and south Alabam'
And little towns all around this land
And we can skin a buck, we can run a troutline
And a country boy can survive
Country folks can survive
A country boy can survive
Country folks can survive
