All you need to know to survive just about anything. There are literally dozens upon dozens of different disasters and emergencies that can affect you, but the good news is, many of the things you’ll do will help you prep for all of them.
Sweet potato soup is equally as delicious as butternut soup, which has become a go-to favorite for many people. Once you have dug up a great crop of sweet potatoes, this is a good way to use them. The color of the soup may vary depending on whether you use the orange sweet potatoes or the white ones that tend…
Let’s be real: Surviving a disaster is a monumental task for anyone. But, when you have a disability, getting through a SHTF scenario mostly unscathed is even more challenging. Unfortunately, there are few resources out there for people with disabilities when it comes to prepping for a disaster. This lack of information leaves people who might already feel unsure about…
If you or a loved one has a disability, surviving a SHTF situation is even more challenging. While adequate prepping is essential for everyone, when you have a disability or chronic condition, you need to take extra steps to ensure that you have precisely what you need to make it through an emergency.

You can ask any prepper what they are most worried about, what they are most concerned with preparing for, and chances are they will respond what’s an answer about some kind of natural disaster.
