Learn how to grow your own food supply with advice from a survival skills expert. This essential guide includes how to choose and grow the most nutrient-dense crops without store-bought amendments or fertilizers, how to plan for a nonstop supply, how to store food, and how to create your own seed bank. Whether we like it or not, the next pandemic—with the same types of supply chain disruptions that came with the last one—is likely to be just around the corner. In addition to stocking up on toilet paper and making sourdough bread, we can all become more resilient in the face of global crises by learning to grow our own food. Author Sam Coffman shows you how to select and grow the most valuable crops—those that offer the most nutrients and the biggest harvest with the least amount of effort, and are the easiest to save seed from—in the least amount of space, using few or no store-bought amendments. He also shows you how to grow food quickly (in as little as five days) in an emergency situation, choose and plant perennial food plants for longer-term harvest, grow mushrooms, forage from the backyard, and store food for the long term.
Sam Coffman is the author of Herbal Medic and has taught survival skills for both urban and primitive situations for more than 25 years, including survival gardening and foraging, wilderness first aid, and post-disaster herbal medicine. He is a registered herbalist (RH) with the American Herbalists Guild, a Wilderness EMT (WEMT), and a Wilderness First Responder instructor, and holds a masters in Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (MSAOM). Coffman is the founder of The Human Path, a preparedness school based in Taos, New Mexico.
