While the world running out of food or so it thinks, there are many things that can feed us if there is “no food”.

There might be no food in the shops and nothing for sale on the streets but that does not mean there is not food. The “strandlopers” and the “bushmen” have survived years here in South Africa and other parts of Africa without the food we see in shops today. There is plenty of food and nature provides it. Instead of saying there is not food we should actually say there is food but not like we are used to getting it.

Here where we live in Helderberg, South Africa there is food basically everywhere. Take for instance the sea and the mountain. At times of food crises the sea can provide more food than anyone can eat. There is more food in the coasts of South Africa than in all the shops in South Africa. So food shortage really does not exist in my opinion.

In some of the next survival skills articles I will discuss what we can eat around our coasts. Always remember, survival skills are not always those that we think we need when our lives are in danger but we can use survival skills in everyday life as well.
