catching up, next workshop

It's been a very busy week for me. Two days were devoted to teaching 220+ homeschoolers the survival basics and one night was giving an edible, utilitarian plant talk for the Virginia Native Plant Society.  

Speaking of edible plants, you can hardly walk across the yard or fields now without tripping over so many nutritious wild edibles. I have been making wild edible salads for the past several weeks. Wild edibles may or may not be as tasty as some 'store' veggies but they are for sure more nutritious. You can eat better and less expensive using wild plants.

My next survival skills 101 is still on for April 4, 2020. With the uncertainty concerning the Coronavirus in securing venues, I will make a venue choice the first of April as to where the workshop will be held. It will be in the Palmyra, Va 22963 area regardless.

The virus, store shortages and closings makes all the skills much more real. I do this mostly for the fascination of primitive living and for the feeling of being able to take care of myself in an emergency but the virus has upped the intensity for me. 

Follow my Facebook page for survival and plant info, I try to post at least one good tip per week.
