Growing your own food sounds like ultimate form of preparedness - but is it actually more reliable than buying food and stock piling your pantry?

In this episode, we break down gardening vs food stockpiling and the trade offs most people ignore. From weather dependence and time delays to shelf life, calories and convenience, we look at what really feeds you when conditions aren't ideal.

We cover:

• Gardening as a long term resilience
• Stockpiling food for immediate security
• The risks of relying on weather, seasons and yield
• The false comfort of "I'll just grow it" thinking.
• Why real food preparedness is about layers and not choosing sides.

This isn't about homesteading aesthetics or panic buying. It's about realistic food security and honest preparedness. Because one depends on the weather and the other depends on your credit card.
