Could you provide all of the food you and your family need for a day? We aren't talking about going to the grocery store or the fast food restaurant to pick something up, but to actually go out and hunt, fish, forage, grow, glean, or otherwise come up with the food you need to sustain your family for a day.

Consider all of the options near your home for securing enough food to cover three meals for the entire family for a day. Can you go fishing? Go hunting? Gather shellfish? Harvest items from your garden? Forage for wild edibles? Would you be able to provide a relatively balanced meal?
