It’s been a long while.

It’s been a long while. Too long. Between uncertainness at work, a few surgeries. And other factors of life in the 21st century, I let this place fall into disrepair. And came to a realization that I can’t do it alone.

We, will I (for now) try to keep politics out of prepping. Other than watching the which way the wind blows and what stupidity is spewed from not only Washington and out state capital of Columbia. But this past month and a half has shown that people, especially people that are in tough times already faced a very serious episode of food insecurity. This showed me a very serious problem. We all have our opinions on government assistance, and this is not the place to talk about them. But I will say that while food banks are needed, the need to show people not only those that live in the country, but the cities as well, potential pathways to get off the “government teat”. Am I suggesting a return to the times of the great depression where people starved in the cities? Not at all. I am suggesting that we take some of those ways of our ancestors and apply them to today.

But I cannot do it alone. And no I am not “hiring”. What I am thinking about is asking folks to write blogs here. Share their ideas tips and life hacks for prepping homesteading herbal tips and survival.

But why? Well the why is, while all of us wish we had a ready made magic wand to end hunger in our communicates. Take the pressure off of families, and individuals. But mainly to help get people away from the dependence of the government. Yes there are people that need help. But if we can teach people, be they in the country or the city to grow some food, find some ways to help take of their health. Make some money learning new skills. That's the why
