We are just a few days from Valentines day.  For me that is when I want most of my seeds started for spring set out.  I use that date as a cut off because I tend to set my plants out starting about March 15th.  This is also the time of year when my inbox starts to heat up with questions about the coming garden season and one topic always exceeds all others.  No not which variety of tomato to plant, not which fertility aid to use or what to use for mulch.  No the number one question is always … Continue reading →

Today two of my favorite people, John Willis and Nicole Sauce join me for our First Tuesday Coffee Chat. Today we talk about some current events and news stories but mostly dig into the recent ice storms and what prepping should be done for such events. We talked about the things you need to get though winter storms including the 4 simple preps that would save 90% of people, 90% of the problems.  I learned about an 1800s cook book that I bought right in the middle of the episode.  We even talked a bit about the recent shooting in … Continue reading →

Is it the best of times or is it the worst of times?  Perhaps it is just the dumbest of times?  I mean just look around you and ask yourself how we got here.  Just five and half years ago over half of America was hiding from the flu while building forts out of toilet paper and bottled water.  They were also chanting death cult slogans like, “stay at home, save lives” and “my mask protects me and your mask protects me” all while shoving untested vaccines into their bodies.
