Yep yeast is yeast but each has a different flavor. The water after you boil potatoes would work,even raisins unless they put preservatives on them(kills the yeast). Just plain corn has some handy uses(not bread so much) but you can put it in a barrel and add water and wait a few weeks till it ferments and go down by the creek with your post whole diggers and dig down as far as you can(about 3 feet and when you spread the handles they hit the side of the hole so you cant go deeper) and fill it with the fermented corn. If you filter the liquid from the corn into a spay bottle and spray it on the bushes a couple of hundred feet in a circle around where you put the corn the wind will carry it all through the woods. Then just wait when the hogs find it they'll eat the corn and after a few days it will look like a bomb crater or something. Ive had hogs dig out a hip hole and start sleeping by a baited hole it's like they think "I know I stuck my nose in there and ate some corn" and so as long as they can smell it they just keep digging and looking for it.
Water though is the hard part because everything stops without water. Most every time you read or hear about what to do to get water they start off with "you will die in three days without water" and then try to sell you something or tell you about things they bought. The whole truth of it is you'll die in three days without water,(comma),,,then after the next three,(comma),,,and then well 365.25 days divided by 3 is 121.75 so anyone trying to live through that first year needs to figure out how to get water for 121.75 consecutive sets of three days. It's sort of like the hole filled with corn but with water, you dig the hole find the water and the people will dig hip holes around it and sleep there. Springs come to mind if not water filtered through sand,charcoal and boiled ect.

Water has been my main concern. Last year I got a price for a well and was quoted $3500 and was put on a waiting list. The drillers didn't get back to me so I contacted them a couple months ago and was quoted $6500 for the same well. "Let's go Brandon"
Can't afford that so I'm building a rain water catchment system. I installed the first of several water tanks and just filled it with tap water and hooked up an on demand water pump and tonight will be testing my system before I expand things. Water tanks like many things have shot up in price so it will still cost me a few thousand dollars to set up. I'm putting them in my house and need to buy smaller tanks that will fit through a 36" door which cost more per gallon but I feel the need to be stealthy.
