One of our main expenses in everyday life, and a serious concern for emergency situations, is food. With grocery prices constantly climbing as a result of inflation and the realization that canned foods will only last for so long, my wife and I have been planning to establish a Aquaponics system. That is a combination of two systems (aquaculture and hydroponics) that work together to produce food on a continual basis. We are aiming for a closed loop system where very little is needed from the outside to sustain the process. This video is from the National Geographic Doomsday Preppers show. While we don't agree with all of the things presented on that show, or all of the opinions of the preppers, this system is in wide usage in Australia and other places, demonstrating its viability. There are many options on fish, vegetables, livestock, fruit trees, etc. are really are up to the gardener/farmer. The amount of money that can be saved, and knowing what is in the food is very desirable to us.
