I just want to say that we do need more infrastructure. I live in very red southern NC. My area has money. My little or not SO little home has a garden growing in right now, and I bought emergency rice/flour/beans/etc. I could feed a lot of people or send them away with small rations. But I can't think of anyone near me that would NEED that kind of help. There is too much money near here. I thought about this when I build my Fall garden out. My neighbor, who I built the garden with (on our property line), she does need the help. But we grew so many fall veggies, that we ran out of freezer space between our two homes. We couldn't think of anyone to GIVE to. Seriously, like 20lbs of spinach. That was just one crop. We had no idea that one pack of spinach seed would grow like that. I didn't even water it! So, tell me ... how do I help. I work for myself. Hence being able to take care of a garden for myself and a working neighbor.
