RE: Covid 19 right now ! And post covid 19
Yes as MB said many people in the UK only have a small garden or yard and have no experience of growing their own food but it is surprising what can be done with a little ingenuity.

You won’t be able to grow the majority of your fruit and vegetable needs but you can make a great improvement to your diet.

If there’s no where for a veg patch or a raised bed you can use pots, tubs, an old dustbin or grow bags, i’ve grown potatoes in old sacks.

Mary, i’ve never kept chickens but the mother-in-law did (in an old terraced council house), eggs never tasted so good.

This generation has lost much of the self sufficient ways of the WW2 generation. At the end of the war we were growing 70% of our food, surely with modern agricultural practices we should be able to do better.

SS is right food shortages are here and will get worse, food in your pantry is better than money in the bank.....GET SHOPPING.
