We buy fresh corn, boil it, cut it off the cob and put it in small freezer bags, tastes fresh that way. Also we raise cows, so we have plenty of meat. However, there is so much more I need to do!! We are looking into getting a chicken coop,because if not, the fox get them. Anyway I'm going to have Mark read this, and I think next fall after our harvest, we'll attempt your experiment! Milk will be the hardest thing to go without...maybe we'll have to get a milk cow. lol. We do have a small farm....come visit! Thanks again! You're awesome!Green Acreshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15468032848229651828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1844553264503265070.post-29524993746716152302009-12-18T21:02:20.035-07:002009-12-18T21:02:20.035-07:00Rich and Steph- Garden tours on Sunday afternoons,...Rich and Steph- Garden tours on Sunday afternoons, 5 cents.

Unfortunately, we have had to use our food storage to help us get through winters at different times throughout our married life. I am a believer and grateful for the lessons I learn every time we depend on it, though we have always been able to go to the store for fresh stuff so I think your experiment is a great learning tool for us that really don't want to participate in the experiment. We may be adventurous to try our 72 hour kit though. Good luck in the last week!Laura Rosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04052103550932137826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1844553264503265070.post-19867259800040958862009-12-03T00:47:30.959-07:002009-12-03T00:47:30.959-07:001.Your garden is gorgeous.

(sadly we have LOTS of non-food essentials stored, but not adequate actual food)<br />4. I've been canning chicken lately. Surprisingly easy to do.<br />5.Your descriptions of dishes you cook are mouthwatering. <br />6. Cream of wheat is not a great evening snack though.<br />7. Mexican food for Thanksgiving??<br />8. Keep us posted on how the tomatos do through the winter.<br />9. Where do you get butter solids?<br />10.
