Family Preparedness Food Storage
Group buy on high-capacity water storage
During my church’s <a href="http://www.connorboyack.com/blog/a-second-snapshot-of-a-communitys-preparedness">recent emergency preparedness drill</a>, I discovered that while many people are doing well on their three month supply of food storage, very few had any type of water storage system. To help correct that, we have arranged for group buys on <strong>two</strong> different high-capacity water tanks, both of which store the equivalent to five 55 gallon drums!

Wake-up Call for a Wealthy Prepper – Scenario Planning Exercise
The wealthy prepper boasted to his friend about his huge propane tank buried in his yard, an endless supply of fuel, food stores for years, and well, basically everything he thought he might need he had purchased. “What do you think of all this?” he asked his friend. His friend paused for a moment and then asked, “so, what do you think is going to happen when you’re the only house on your block with the lights on, while all your neighbors are cold, starving and miserable?”

Skills as a prep
A few weeks ago a guest author on a popular preparation blog discussed the value of gardening as a resource. He put forth the opinion that while he enjoys gardening as a pastime, the decision as to whether to engage in it should be based solely around time and cost. Citing the inability to move a garden in an emergency and the amount of labor required to get to harvest, he concluded that it is better to save your seeds for a bug-out and expend today's efforts and money on a trip to the grocery store. "It's all about time," he says, "not a skill or desire."

Pandemic Preparedness - DIY Sanitization
<img class="alignright size-full wp-image-1647" title="san-prods" src="/images/uploads/2009/04/san-prods-277x184-custom.jpg" alt="san-prods" width="277" height="184" />Pandemic Preparedness is one of the simpler types of prepping - mostly because it relies heavily on you already being prepped with other things like food storage, water storage, etc. A major component of Pandemic Prepping is preparation for quarantine. Sanitation is a major part of Pandemic and quarantine preparedness. While sanitzation is always important, during quarantine, sanitization will be extremely important in order to keep everyone healthy. In this post we're going to talk about killing germs and how to do it safely with household products.
