This week we look at the impact of the challenges facing families and eating under quarantine. We examine how a town survived six months under quarantine when the bubonic plague was sweeping England and also how you can stock your home with healthy foods that have long shelf life. We also compare how we survive in challenging situations today with COVID-19 with how the pioneers did, when faced with similar challenges while trekking across North America in Canada and the United States. Suggestions and guide books for the pioneers exist today and we refer to them for guidance.
