Are there likely to be food shortages coming this year?

According to the news and what's going on around the world - then yes, It's possible.

Take heed today and don't let your food pantry run dry due to food shortages caused by Pandemics and the war in Ukraine. And now Israel.

Yes, we need to be aware of what's going on around us—beyond our front door and our workplace—we need to know what's going on around the world, too!

Bread, Canned Food, and Corn ~ Could There be Real Food Shortages Coming This Year?

What if we're confronted with another dire situation... would staples such as bread, canned food, and corn become increasingly hard to come by? You betcha.

In the United States, bread factories have reduced production because of rising prices in agricultural commodities such as wheat.

What will you do if this trend continues, and bread becomes scarce across the country?

Canned Foods Under Pressure, Literally

Additionally, canned foods have come under increasing pressure and suffer from shortages. Prices for these items have risen exponentially since Covid-19 arrived, and manufacturers struggled to keep up with demand.

Granted, we're a lot better off now, as I add this in early April of 2024.

But as a result, we shoppers should stock up on canned goods - just in case - or face empty shelves when we visit our local grocery store. I'm not saying "clear out the stores," but buy what you can and put it away.

Better Save and Plant Your Corn Cobs...

Corn is becoming increasingly difficult to obtain and corn is a staple food in many countries. The rising demand for corn used in industrial products has caused supply chains to become strained.

As a result, it is sometimes hard to find affordable corn-based foods and other products.

There is a very real chance that food shortages will become more common in the United States and around the world as manufacturers struggle to keep up with demand. Things cost more. Good old "supply" and "demand" issues raise their heads.

We consumers must remain informed and proactive and make sure we are prepared for any possible food scarcities. By taking the necessary precautions, we can avoid potential disruptions to our daily lives due to meal shortages.

Be Prepared: But How?

QUESTION: What can you do at home to help protect your family from a possible food shortage?

ANSWER: Make sure you have enough food on hand by dehydrating food when it's in season or goes on sale as a BOGO (buy one get one).

Stock Up on BOGOs and Buy Bruised Goods

Get out of the car and scour the roadside produce stands. On the weekends? Visit the farmers' markets. There's a great one down in Fort Pierce, Florida. Live music, good food, and fun!

Don't miss out and skip buying bruised or misshapen fruits and vegetables. They all taste the same, whatever size or shape they are!

I'm really pleased that there are many organizations that deliver slightly imperfect foods directly to our doors.

Get Busy Growing Fruits & Veggies!

Have you ever considered growing your own fruits and veggies? I did. I started a compost bin and all. What happened? We moved house! Grrrr. If you're lucky enough to live on acreage—be it an acre or ten acres—then why not grow veggies? Plant a few fruit trees too while you're at it!

While I'm on the subject, you'll probably need a greenhouse to get your seedlings started in colder climes. Check out this super greenhouse made from recycled items! Love. It.
