Absolutely agree with you, PrepperLinda65. Going off-the-grid isn't just a survival tactic, but a complete lifestyle transformation. It's all about mastering those lost arts – gardening, canning, baking bread from scratch, you name it!
As someone who's been neck-deep in botany and gardening for years, let me tell you, knowing your plants makes a world of difference. Understanding what plants to grow, how to nurture them, and how to use them medicinally or nutritionally, can be your own little secret weapon. It's not just about having a green thumb but knowing what is in your garden and how it can help you.
And hey, believe me when I say, mistakes will be made. Like that time I planted tomatoes in a shady area? Absolute disaster. But you learn, you grow. Literally!
Has anyone else made any major blunders during their transition to off-grid living? Lessons learned the hard way are, after all, the one's that stick, right?
