A Food Forest In Your Garden
Plan it - Grow it - Cook it
by Alan Carter
Owning the weather will affect crops and livestock, allotments, gardens...they will have at least some power to decide when and if it rains, snows and so forth.

I think self sufficient living means it's a good idea to learn to bake bread because if it becomes more difficult to obtain then this is the solution.

Homemade Lavender Dryer Bags

You’ll need:
Dried lavender flowers
Organza favor bags

Instructions:
This project doesn’t really need instructions, but it felt wrong not to include them…so here goes.

Just take a spoon or a small scoop and fill the bags with dried lavender flowers.

Tie them off tightly (using 3 or 4 knots just to be safe), and voila! You’ve got a dryer bag.

Using Your Dryer Bags:
Toss a bag into the dryer along with your laundry. Your clothes will smell wonderful when they’re done drying!

You can use each bag between 5 and 10 times before the flowers run out of fragrance. Once that happens, you can untie the bag, dump out the old flowers, and put some fresh ones in. You can also toss your lavender buds with a few drops of lavender essential oil if desired.

As for the old flowers…save those to sprinkle on your carpet before vacuuming. The brush of your vacuum will release the last bit of lavender scent, and freshen up your carpets.

Solar power, wood burners and gas cylinders, hot water bottles ...at the ready.
How is anybody expected to come up with that amount of cash(£571 per household a month)? People will be eating raw food or only buying it precooked at this rate to put in the microwave.
