I live with my partner and in-laws on a few acres in the rural US. Right now we both have jobs and are saving as much as we can given the crazy way the world is at the moment.
I make less and am more of a junior professional so it’s likely I would be laid off first in a depression. Given this I’ve been thinking about non monetary ways to contribute.
One obvious one is gardening, which made me realize it might be a good idea to stock up on fertilizer if it went from a hobby to a necessity to grow food.
What other bulk things, or things in general might we stock up on that we would kick ourselves for not buying a lifetime supply of while we can?
Thanks a bunch!


Fyi you may need more than 1 apple tree to get apples or so says the singular apple tree in my backyard
You just need some bees for pollination. Having multiples is a good idea for diversification of risc anyways. Apple trees usually need a couple of years to bear fruit though, so plan ahead.
Your specific tree might not be healthy or might just be too young. :)
Most apple trees can’t self pollinate, I was given my tree so I don’t know what it is.
im just getting into trees, and i believe apple trees cant self pollinate. if you happen to have a grafted tree with multiple varieties i think its possible.
