  1. We are anticipating the jump in grain prices. We are wanting to grow all our own livestock feed anyway. Our garden is getting MUCH BIGGER this year! Anyone have ideas of what to grow to feed chickens and milk cow? Don’t say corn. It’s too late to grow corn, and I’m wanting to get them off of corn anyway. I am growing okra to replace the cottonseed meal for the cow. It is an experiment. Lots of squash. I’m trying to figure out how to store winter squash in a hot, very humid climate.

  2. Storing winter Squash. I have had great success with dehydrating butternut squash as well as pumpkins, here’s how. Early in the winter when heating season starts I cut them into 1/4 inch squares and place them on parchment paper in 1/2 sheet baking pans, these I put on the wood stove and tend until they are dry. Shaking and rolling the pieces as they dry with the parchment paper. I then store the dried product in quart mason jars. It is amazing how many pounds of squash fit in a quart jar. Reconstitute with water and enjoy in your favorite recipes. You may want to add a desiccant and O2 absorber, but I have not found that necessary. Other vegs also work well , Bell peppers, etc.

  3. Unfortunately, we can’t take advantage of PSA’s offer here in CA. Both the online purchase/shipping to your home and the 30-rd mags are illegal here.

    But as always, LEOs are exempt from all our gun control laws. The PTB in Sacramento want to keep their “layman soldiers” happy.

    1. That’s why you set up a PO Box in Nevada. You get a drivers license in Nevada to the PO Box as you tell them you’re homeless. Which you are in Nevada. You but all your firearms 30 round magazines and ammunition and send them to your Nevada address.

      Works every time. Take the family to Vegas and pick up your goodies.

      All the best.

      1. It can be problematic to use a PO box to receive packages.

        UPS and FedEx won’t deliver large or heavy packages to a Post Office – they hold them at their distribution center and call you to come in and pick them up.

        Some vendors won’t accept a PO box for certain items (including gun parts).

        You can get around this by using a private shipping/mailbox service.

      2. Problem solved…I was among the first to hear of the CA mag law being struck down last Friday, reading about it only hours after the news was released. I IMMEDIATELY jumped on the chance and ordered a boxload of “real” mags, and was very glad I did because the next day several online forums had tons of commenters saying sellers were out of stock everywhere and backordering.

        🙂

  4. Most grains (except corn) shouldn’t experience any shortages from the flooding. There are mountains of wheat laying on the ground all around the Midwest as the elevators are used for the ‘high dollar’ soybeans and corn. Seems lots of demand for FedGov required ‘renewable’ fuels are driving demands on those. Any big surge in prices is more likely the Wall St. crooks making money off of others misery.
