It’s quite easy if you know how to make a hole in the ground and plant a few seeds. I know some younger folks think their produce grows on store shelves but that’s only because of their parents’ failures in teaching them.

I find that most youth, today, would starve to death if they were locked inside a grocery store, but not all. Some can read and others can even cook. But they are few.

Nevertheless, information is easily obtained and the instructions are on each seed packet -- there’s no excuse for starvation.

Lol, Planting isn’t what the American youth wants. Instant gratification is the thing that drives them to even get up in the morning. They do not have needs but an abundance of wants. That is one of the problems to blame for the fall of the USA. Not one politician on the right or left have a clue on how to fix that so it stays as one of the unspoken Things we can blame on Islamists or blacks. It is rarely mentioned. Who wants to say “my kid lives in lalaland”.

I’m already on the one meal a day. In between planting or after stored goods run low, I have invested in edible plants that look like ornaments in my yard. Worse comes to worse I’ll have carbohydrates to go with what proteins I can hunt.

Good luck with the planting and the kids. Both require more than to just reading the packet. Where you plant, in what season, failure to water, or over watering, (we do that with the kids too) all matter.
