What is nothing happens? What if all you are doing gets passed on to your children? Is all of our prepping going to be all for nothing if life goes on without a hiccup? It shouldn’t be, everything we do should not only prepare us for anything unexpected, we should be instilling these values in […]

As we travel along in our preparedness journey, we are bound to get sidetracked or lose focus at one point or another. Unfortunately, just about all of us fall victim to this, but we can’t afford to let it drag on. One week turns into three weeks, and that turns into months or even years. […]

Anyone who has ever gone through a power outage (I’m willing to bet is just about everyone) knows that it seems like life just stops without electricity. Literally everything we buy, and use is associated with electricity in one way or another. Take dog food for example. While you don’t need to plug a bag […]

The world we are living in today is a far cry from what I believe our forefathers set out for us to have, but in the US today everyone has become so focused on what they are entitled too, and it seems they have lost track of how to personally responsible and accountable for how […]

If you have been interested in preparedness for a while you no doubt have heard about the All-American Sun Oven, and possibly even own one. In my opinion, the Sun Oven is one of the most important preparedness supplies we can have. While food, water and shelter are by far the most important aspects of […]

Throughout our daily lives we depend on other people. A society becomes stronger when most of the population works together to better the economy, the culture and production. Unfortunately, history has shown that as a society grows, it inevitably falls apart. What people do and how people react (or fail to) in a crisis are […]

When it comes to prepping we all think in time frames, a week, 3 months and a year. An economic collapse is not like a terrorist attack or an earthquake, an economic collapse has so many variables that there is no simple checklist you can go through and be completely prepared. This article might be […]

We all love to think about what it would be like to not have to depend on public service companies, making the grocery store a convenience and not a necessity by growing our own food and living a more self-reliant life in general. All this sounds great, but what would it take to go completely […]

There are a lot of misconceptions out there that make people think that preppers are off their respective rockers.

With the exception of water, Emergency food storage might be the most important part of preparing for an emergency or disaster.
