The current situation (for historical purposes, as I write, large portions of the world are locked down due to an epidemic) only happens once every few decades. Although some few experts — always ignored — have stated we should be be ready and vigilant, most of the world was anything but.
A couple of weeks ago, if you walked into a grocery store, you found the meat shelves empty, strict limits on eggs — one package per customer — and no canned or frozen vegetables left.
Most recently, some meat packing plants have shut down.
Though I don’t think we are going to get to the point of mass starvation, it should be understood that our supply networks are fragile and that an emergency — even a global one — can take us unawares.

Seed suppliers are back ordered and struggling so if you need to order seeds, get your orders in early!
