Bartering
Of course bartering within the group for hand-cultivated goods is not only acceptable, but encouraged. Some of you are for trading with outside sources, others are opposed. Here is the question - if you were allowed to trade with outside sources, what food or foods do you feel you need to trade for? I will make a ruling next Monday, 1/11.

None! I think we can make it on what we can grow! :o)
ReplyDeleteI think the two most difficult things to be without are salt and cooking fat/oil. But I don't know where I could barter outside the group to get those things.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Sarah. Salt and oil are necessities in food preparation and it is nearly impossible to barter for them.
ReplyDeleteI will offer to buy the more natural forms of these items for the group in exchange for some of the other goods.

ReplyDeleteJUST REMEMBER - if you're going to cheat, admit to it!
ReplyDeleteSharon-- that is hilarious! :o) Like a salt and oil racketeer...
ReplyDeleteSharon is gonna be like the old whiskey runners from Prohibition, complete with spats and Tommy gun!
ReplyDeleteI retract my comment about heading up the underground operation to get salt and oil if its outlawed. The few items that I have made with just veggies have not needed salt so I am going to go salt free for the week. Oil will be my cheat item.
