I believe as long as I could still earn money to buy things from the village shop and the clothing on the internet, I could mostly manage on what I could grow and gather within a 5 mile radius. I started a Mental list of wild foods in that circle and realised it would take me all night. I’m very lucky I have pasture, woods, and the sea within that distance so could easily gather all year round, it’s having access to the shop that’s key so I could preserve, pickle, salt or dry the annual gluts for leaner months.
A pocket knife is not a weapon in the right hands it’s an essential garden tool.
