I work at a chiropractic office. In our lobby we have a seed/plant exchange. All of the locals love it. They bring seeds and starts and clippings of all kinds of plants and trade them in. It’s super awesome. I also save seeds from just about every single food I buy that has seeds inside of it. Then I collect seed packets from everywhere I see them available. Just two or three each time. I have a full tub of them now. In the summer I seed save from my garden. And since I compost I always have volunteer plants popping up.

Hello 👋🏼 I’m glad to be here. I am from Northern Cali and have been prepping for close to 22 years. I’m excited to learn and to share from my experiences and mistakes.I love to can foods, dry foods and package them. My best friend is YouTube. I learn more every day from youtube than I have any other way. The more you learn the more independent you will become. I always think that if someone else can do it so can I. Although I’m so lost with the whole solar set up thing. I just cannot wrap my brain around it. 😂

Believe differently? I don’t understand.

I have been prepping for over 20 years. I would figure 2-3 gallons of water per day per person. Now keep in mind that the answer can vary depending on many things. How many people are in your group and how old are they? Do you have only dried foods stored? Will you be making baby formula every few hours? Does anyone in your group have special needs for extra liquids? Will you be worried about washing dishes or laundry? What are your plans on replenishing your water supply? Of course all of these things and many more will determine your answer. So give yourself some time to calculate how much you will need for each person for a specific time. Keep in mind you will also have the water in your water heater and toilet tank for use.
