times more food, pound for pound, than they would get if they set up a traditional garden in the
same amount of space.
Conventional gardening and farming are “ok”, sure, but aren’t as healthy as you might think. The words
“organic” and “bio” don’t mean anything anymore, because big food corporations “changed” the
definitions to increase sales and profits…
These money-hungry vampires are doing everything they can to make food grow as fast and as big as
possible... because speed and more pounds per square foot mean more money in their pockets.
Never mind that they taste like plastic, lack nutrients, and that are sprayed with oil containing pesticides,
which eventually end up in your body…
The name of the game is profit, and these guys are masters of it. Plus, I hate to say this but,
conventional gardening has the same problems, because it works the same, only on a smaller scale.
HERE’S THE UNTOLD STORY OF HOW FOOD IS
ACTUALLY PRODUCED...
First, all microbial life is killed when the soil is tilled or plowed (because air and sun’s UV rays destroy
the tiny organisms living inside it). That’s why crops grow in record time...
Only problem is, the trick doesn’t work forever. The soil quickly gets depleted of nutrients, so they

need to bring in fertilizers, fungicides and pesticides to continue to see results … This is getting harder
and harder because the weeds are getting more and more resistant, just like your body stops reacting to
antibiotics when you use them for the long term.
When those stop working as well, the only thing left to do is plant something else (they call it crop
rotation), or move to some other piece of land and destroy that as well.
You see, when you spoon-feed your plants with water and nutrients, the roots don’t develop as well and
can’t absorb that many nutrients from the soil. Even the ones that grow in your garden using traditional
methods turn into “couch potato plants”...
Just like a kid who’s always sick and you have to keep him on antibiotics for the rest of his life. High-
calorie, low nutrient crops that cost money to fertilize and need constant watering, spraying and daily
care... This is not the kind of food we should be putting in our mouths….
All of these are signs that the old agricultural ways aren’t working anymore… and that we need to
change our thinking and our habits of we want to eat healthy...
These aren’t exactly the things you hear about in the enemedia, right? Don’t worry, though, because
there is a better way to feed yourself and your family in times of crisis. This way is actually healthier
than gardening and is perfect for survival purposes. It is called permaculture and it’s a method of
replicating nature’s way of growing food with little effort in your own back yard.
This type of garden is as organic as it gets and, more importantly, it’s completely hidden in plain sight
(because of the ingenious way in which it is designed, keeping all the goodies behind a thick layer of
bushes and trees).
