Backyard survival gardening- setting up an area and composting – preparing for Economic Collapse

In the event of an Economic Collapse or Crisis, food supplies may be disrupted or shortages may occur. Setting up a garden area in your backyard is prudent. If your soil is less than desired, composting leaves is a great way to enrich your soil. Bagged leaves are easliy found on the side of the road for trash pick-up and throwing them into a landfill is a wasteful sin. A two foot deep pile of leaves will rot down in about a year and provide you with some of the best topsoil you can find. Just add a little lime to neutralize the acidity of the composted material and you will be ready to start planting.
