Barb and I are market growers and otherwise we're on fixed income. You're right about what this list is for. It's what we try to encourage. But more than self sufficiency, we're about community self sufficiency, networking, swapping, sharing skills and knowhow where we live. Not a bunker mentality, withdrawing in paranoia. One thing is we give away starter veggie plants to four other families. Short season here in NCent NM. As things get crazier out there local networking can be a lifesaver.

Giving away starter plants is a great idea and a great thing for you to do. I've been looking for ways to network that don't involve just talking about the problems, and I like the idea of providing specific help like this.
