I’m fairly new to this site and am still learning a lot. I would love to hear advice from you all! What are you preparing for (food shortages, power outages, growing your own food, purchasing a generator, etc)? How are you preparing? Why do you feel the need to do so?
I’m not interested in doom and gloom but a real response on what people are concerned could happen and how you are preparing. Thank you!
I prep the same every year. Live in a pretty remote part of Canada. So this is business as usual for me.
We usually have about a years worth of frozen stuff (meat, cheeses, etc.
A years worth of canned stuff and a years worth of dry stuff.
I keeps some seeds from my garden and order new ones every year so I can start them in spring. Reseed all my left over potatoes.
I have a generator and fuel for about a month but we heat and cook with wood mostly so electric is just a luxury we can live without. I have enough firewood for this winter and next. I harvest 5-10 cords usually during winter for next year and such.
I wish I had more kerosene and candles right now and it’s on the shopping list.
I hoard ammo since that can get hard to come by (reloading supplies too)… that’s one thing that if I run out of we’d likely be screwed although I do own a few bows.
Sounds like you are set up very well!! Good for you! Thank you so much for sharing! I really appreciate hearing your input!!
How I got started was reading the Bible. The prophecies struck me as this is now esp around 2008. Been prepping ever since.
My parents survived Stalin and Holodomyr, Hitler and slave labor and concentration camps. All my life they told me the stories. One day as I helped my mom cooking she said to me: You will never go hungry because with all we went through I taught you how you could eat with flour and water, and maybe you have an apple, or maybe a potato, an onion or nuts.
When we lose our democracy we are all on our own against mafias, murderers, rapists, all forms of lawlessness. Protect, survive and have faith in God.
Stacking silver. Everything going to shit. Conspiracy theories about silver.and cuz if the shit hits the fan,I want something that definitely holds some kinda value so I can trade for things.
I really need to look into this. Fortunately my husband is very wise with money and our house is fully paid for. But we need to look into silver.
Wall Street silver on reddit. Tons of 8nfo 8f you can wade past the garbage.
I believe we might need to be able to do business without using central banks. So honing one’s skill set and stocking up on goods for barter, tools especially.
So many tools we don’t have. I’ve been looking into some essential tools as Christmas gifts for my husband. I want to have more of these things on hand should we need them.
Thank you for your input!! I really appreciate hearing from everyone!
Amen to that!! My faith in Jesus is the only thing that keeps me hopeful in the midst of all this insanity.
Have you read the book, WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE by Dr David Jeremiah. It’s excellent and has been a huge source of encouragement for me!
Good word!
