Very Important Information For ALL - Food Shortages

I am not one to preach too much - or to tell folks what to do - but this is a VERY important subject. A Mississippi company called "Delta Pine & Land" sold out to Monsanto last year. They owned what is called the "Terminator Technoligy". This creation causes seeds from "mother plants" to be sterile. It was used on cotton so that the farmers were forced to buy new cotton seed each year. It can now be sold to other major seed companies so that vegetable seeds can be sterile too.

This means that in the very near future there could be some major problems. There are already problems with hybrid vegetable seeds - remember the e. coli in spinich a while back? That was because the spinich was genectically modified and in doing so - it got screwed up. Genitically modifying seed invloves things like splicing in a cold water fish gene into a tomato plants genetic make-up. It will create disease resistance - but what else does that gene cause? Who knows.

This modification in cotton is what I feel is the root cause of morgellon's disease. And many more unknown problems are coming.

I have always had a garden - we save seed from non-hybrid varaties and replant each year - some of my plants are from seed that has been handed down through generations. My advice to all of - even those of you who live in apartments - is to get yourself some "open-pollinated" , "non-hybrid", "heirloom" seeds and start growing some food for yourself. If you will use these seeds to grow your garden and will save some of these seeds to plant the next year - you are well on your way! You CANNOT save and reuse seeds from hybrid plants - they must come from open-pollinated varaties.

It is not hard to do at all! In fact, just about anything that can be grown in the ground can be grown in containers. You can also produce a lot of food from a very small garden spot or in flower beds!

There is so much information out there about gardening - on the internet and in books. Just start small with things that you like and that will grow well in your area. I know that I and my family will be fine if the grocery stores prices get high - or if there continues to be food shortages. You can be fine too if you will just try to grow some of your own food.

Once you get going you can always learn to can - it's not hard either! And freezing vegetables is really easy too.

O.K. - enough preaching. I am just worried about major crop failures and food shortages. We live in the greatest nation in the world as far as agriculture goes - we just need to be more self-supporting as individuals.
