The referenced article mentioned something that has
been on my mind lately. Like many "boomers", our life savings is invested
in the stock market, courtesy of 401k plans. That's increasingly
uncomfortable. I'd like to move our pittance to something more
tangible, focusing on food security. Since I've
been working on personal self-sufficiency for over 30 years, most
of the obvious is covered (i.e. paid-for energy-efficient house and land,
tools, rain water collection, reference books). I could use some fresh
ideas for cash investment, especially regarding food production and
preservation. How about seeds? is there a good source for
properly preserved vegetable seeds, or is this a DIY? Seems like most of
what needs to be done requires time and effort, rather than cash.
