Rising Food and Gas Prices Mean you Should Start a Garden. Like Now.
You saw the headlines this week, food prices are on the rise all across the nation. Headlines from the mainstream media read “Attention Shoppers: Fruit and Vegetable Prices Are Rising” or “Sticker shock at the steak house; beef prices highest in 27 years” and “Rising food, housing costs push up U.S. inflation“. The prices are being blamed on the drought in California and “inflation”. Inflation: is it what they keep saying it is? We’ll get into that later. Thumbnail credit: kgi.org
Either through mother nature disrupting commercial crops, or inflation undermining our purchasing power at the pump and at the grocery store, the need to grow a garden at your home and/or in your community has never been greater. Let’s look at food prices. Here’s a chart that was posted by the WSJ on Tuesday:
As you can see from this graphic, many staple food crops are on the rise, with expectations that the prices could go even higher. These prices are being blamed on the drought and an extra long cold winter in the East, but these prices are just symptoms of the bigger problem which is an over-centralized food system. When the entire nation depends on only a few sources for the majority of their food supplies, the prices and availability could vary greatly if the areas where these crops are mass produced are affected by weather events. This is why you should start a garden. If you can start to source some or all of your food from your own garden, a community garden, or at least locally grown, you can dampen the effects of bad weather on your food supply and food costs.
