What we’re about
Hurricanes, economic uncertainty, pandemic, nuclear proliferation. The possibility of any or all of these hang over our heads every day. But are any of us prepared to protect our families if something drastic should occur?
Are you going to have all of the essentials, or are you going to join the mob of desperate last minute shoppers?
When you do that last minute shopping, is your money going to have buying power?
Be sure to look into our huge FILE section listed under "more" in the main menu. It is loaded with free information for you to download and share with others.
Meet with others to form a public alliance plan to benefit people prepared to self sustain independently for many months after an economic, natural, or man made disaster.
Let's work together to provide our own safety net for ourselves and our families. We want to foster community as we learn about and promote healthy, sustainable, self-sufficient lifestyles as well as environmental stewardship.
Please look at the categories on our discussion board regularly; we hope you'll come to the group for advice, and we hope even more that you'll offer advice to those who are looking for assistance! We look forward to providing an interactive learning community for you online as well as in person.
