YCPT: Dealing with Food Shortages or Famine

Jim Arroyo, President of Yavapai Preparedness Team, discusses the problems of food shortages, or famine. Learning how to grow a garden, raising animals for food, as well as how to do canning, food storage, and butchering animals is also discussed. There are online classes for these techniques and Jim mentions a few resources.

He also talks about dealing with dead bodies and defending yourself, citing the example of what happened in Yugoslavia when the country broke apart. Things can go to pieces very quickly. Jim cites the “Law of Unintended Consequences.”
