I would love to know some tricks to getting most of these ingredients so I don’t have to drive almost 2 hous to the smaller cities that would carry these items & keep them fresh. I could start a small herb garden but would have to fight off the deers etc & am disabled and live in a cute little cabin with no extra space. I tried to read comments but all I could see were everyones names. Also am cooking for just myself & just a small freezer. I haven’t started yet due to all the reading, forms & trying to figure out how to get all these ingredients. Help I really want to get started.
