Food Storage Feast Endorsement: "Food Storage Feast is one of the most important recommendations I can make for your preparedness. Chef Keith has changed my entire perspective on how to really enjoy living off food storage." -Joel Skoussen, Author Strategic Relocation, Publisher World Affairs Brief WHAT IS ON THE MENU: Eggplant parmesan Thai Curry Apple Pie FOOD INDUSTRY AND HARVEST NEWS: Mycoprotein Maker Enough Raises Over $40 Million to Double Capacity The Scottish company has ambitious goals of producing one million tons of its mycoprotein product "Abunda," which is the equivalent of replacing five million cows or more than one billion chickens. Made using fungi and placed into all sorts of fake meat products. TODAY'S MAIN TOPIC: Now that we're almost through September, most parts of the country are harvesting abundant local apples. This is a critical time to cook, store, and enjoy apples as we should have access to fresh local apples instead of store-bought apples from last season that have been sitting in cold storage. Cooking and processing local apples in America is a truly delightful and rewarding experience. With an abundance of apple varieties grown across the country, there is no shortage of options for creating delicious dishes. Whether it's baking a classic apple pie, making homemade applesauce, or crafting sweet apple butter, the possibilities are endless. The freshness and quality of locally sourced apples amplify the flavors and textures, resulting in delicious and comforting apple dishes. Supporting local farmers and enjoying the bounties of the harvest season only adds to the sense of connection and community. So, grab your apron, gather a basket of local apples, and embark on a culinary journey that showcases the true essence of autumn flavors. During this fall harvest season I suggest we all do the following: Make apple pie Make cider and freeze some Make dehydrated apple rings Make applesauce Make apple butter Make apple cake Make apple fritters HOMESTEAD TSUNAMI: Chickens are pretty essential on any homestead, find yours here. I also strongly recommend ducks, not that I have raised ducks, but my experience with speaking at length with many duck owners has convinced me these are critical livestock to have. Here are available ducklings as I write this. ECONOMIC NEWS: Brent Crude at $96 per barrel and many analysts expect we could reach $100 a barrel. Oil prices this high really put pressure on families and industry. High fuel costs raise food costs as crop harvesting and shipping and storage all use copious amounts of fuel. PRODUCT RECOMMENDATION: Alexandre Farm Dairy Products. Nestled between the Coastal Redwood Forest, the Pacific Ocean and the Smith River, our farmland sits at the confluence of an exceptional wildlife habitat. As stewards of that land, we put forth our best efforts to care for wetlands, riparian zones, the surrounding land, and any critter that calls our farm home. Hundreds of species of birds and other wildlife choose to live here, even if some are just passing through along their migratory journey, the Pacific Flyway. Just like our organic farming practice, healthy soil and year-round green grasses are the foundation for benefits much larger than our farming ecosystem. CLOSING THOUGHTS: Buy local apples, cook, repeat Search Local Harvest.org to find farms in your area.
