I’ve been blessed. My seedlings are really taking off– it’s still too cold to plant them outside yet, I am hoping within the next 2 weeks?

 I know with the weather that has been going on around the country folks are HARD PRESSED to get anything in the ground! Hay farmers unable to plant, large scale grain crop/produce farms in some areas of the country under water and other areas you can’t BUY a drop of water…no food for people or animals…..we’re going to be in dire straits, folks. I am planting anything and everything I can, in any pot, plot or windowsil I can find. 

This is a VERY TELLING article on what is happening ‘out there’ in regards to our food supply, and from what I am hearing from US farmers and homesteads– its rough out there, not just in some ‘far away land’ that is experiencing a seasonal drought….this is in our own backyards and stretches GLOBALLY folks…as this article states:

At some point, this crisis will affect you and your family. It may not be today, and it may not be tomorrow, but it is going to happen. Crazy weather and horrifying natural disasters have played havoc with agricultural production in many areas of the globe over the past couple of years. Planting away,

Lisa
