As soon as possible, depending of course on the time of year, start growing your own food supply. Basic tools may be found in abandoned houses or shops or you will have to be make do with what tools you can improvise yourself. Don't despair, it might be a lot of work but people have grown plants before machines and fertilizer! Besides keeping you fit, the work might even give you a sense of achievement and purpose...

Start right away to search for seeds, potatoes and anything else you can plant. Again, try to familiarize yourself with the basics at least of gardening and plant growing.

Easy plants to grow include potatoes, carrots and cabbages.

Depending on the area, try to learn a few things about conserving food as well.
