5.3 Shotgun in the Garden: food storage & food values
Potatoes so precious their gardener took a shotgun to their defence - is one of the stories of our food & money systems in action today in which I root this episode. I touch on many things but keep coming back to food storage infrastructure. The wrap up on what to do zeroes in on fun, community and the power to plant your own food traditions!
