Yup.  I'm still working on it but only trees really work for me,
though I get other things in smaller amounts.  Lettuce and green
onions equal to our needs.  Most years lots of bell peppers.

The United States imports about 15% of its food supply or

Why not?  People sure used to.  100 years ago, poor people didn't
have a food-stamps card.  Grow it yourself, or starve.

 
Yup.
 
Anyways, I join here to talk food related items, not trade insults.
I'll end the thread with Cindy because no one wants to see that, me
least of all.
 
On gardening, I'm actually surprised you didn't put in a few tomato
plants anf really easy stuff to offset some prices.  If it's hard to
find seeds. I can mail you some or send them? Let me know in email ok?
 
If interested, alt.gardens.edible is a decent resource from small
setups in a few containers with just a few things to bigger setups like
Songbird's.
 
A few containers (top of a 1gallon milk jug cut off works fine for a
green onion patch, herbs, and such.  Just little stuff at the start, no
digging up 20sqft of yard or anything.  I don't do that at all.  Just
some containers gathered over the decades on raised planters.
 
PS: Oh, here Cindy has us importing only 15%, elsewhere she has us
importing a whole lot more, maybe she went for *all imports*, not just
food? She leaves us guessing as no link.  No matter but that's why mine
came with links and were clearly just food.

I hope she quits pissing in your corn flakes soon.

I'm not going to quit.  Just waiting for the next bowl.  It's
obvious this one is full.
