When It Comes to Self Reliance & Survivalism
Old Fashioned Gardening Is Out
Survival, Victory, Container Gardens,

Have a Producer Paradigm
Through out the years most people who garden focus on unusual and remarkable varieties not on production. Taking the approach of a producer rewrites your outcome. Selecting methods and varieties that have high output, value and usefulness in your daily menu.
Victory Gardens, War Gardens or Food Gardens for Defense
They have a special spot in the history of the USA, UK, Canada, Australia and Germany. During World War I and II their respective governments called on their citizens to grow their own food; fruits and vegetables in order to prevent food shortages. In 1943, 20 million such gardens were producing 8 million tons of food, up to 41 percent of the total consumption of vegetables in the USA
during those years.

Container Gardening
Those who live in apartments, condos or other situations where you may not be able to till the ground and plant have the option of planting in containers. These can range from large pots that can be moved to large coolers recycled into planters placed on a patio or deck.
Hydroponics and Aquaponics
These two forms of gardening have brought about a new way of growing vegetables and plants that are unsurpassed by any other method.
