Same price as last year. We stovk up on frozen veges on sales and have a garden and 9 fruit trees. My wife cans tomatoes, peaches and pears. We buy two flats of western oregon peaches each year. Part of a fund raiser for the girls HS basketball team. Sweet deal for a good cause. We have 14 chickens. Farm eggs to gather each day. We will get a couple more hens today.

From the article:
"Shoppers had better start budgeting more for their grocery bills, according to the latest consumer price index, which shows prices are increasing — and they’re
likely to keep going up
.
The monthly consumer price index, released Tuesday morning by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, showed a 0.6 percent increase in March, the
largest one-month increase in nearly a decade
. Over the past year, prices have increased 2.6 percent overall."
One example is bacon is up more than a dollar a pound in some major cities. Supply problems are causing most of the increases and those problems are not going away thanks to Biden and liberal state governors. And it is going to get worse.
This is a very good year for everyone to start growing a garden.
