    The web site “down detector” has been very good about reporting issues.

    I have been thinking this way for the last 10 years. I have been working on growing food that takes the least amount of effort.

    The USA blew up the Russian pipeline. We have a president who lost lives in Afghanistan and does not care about the Americans that were taken hostage in Gaza, and took a full year to visit Palistine, OH. this puppet president does not care anything for us. So having no border any terrorist that wants to attack us can and has people are now dead with the drug markets going wild. NY has illegals attacking police officers we are now without rule of law.

    That said, the direction forward is building local community and to have plans for what is coming. Destruction of the USA dollar is here, many food items have doubled and tripled in price. Our pay did not double or triple thus we just got a pay cut and our bank accounts are worth 1/2 to 1/3 of what they use to have value.

    So… what can we do? work with those who want to live and walk away from those who want to do nothing and starve. There are people who are preparing work with them. There are people who are preparing to eat nothing, and go on a long lasting fast….. This is by plan and design of our gov.

    So yes, I do believe we are ok while there is food on the shelf, but when the dollars has zero value people historically go nutz. A parent will do ANYTHING to feed their children, there are no rules when that happens.

    Depends on well you know your site. About the first thing I normally recommend is to get fruit trees planted. But some suggest to spend the first year just observing your property and seeing where the water flows, the animals run over it and get familiar with the property, as identify the plants that are there, and learning what you have.

    Once you know your property, then you can set the goals for what you wish to accomplish… It is easy to try to do everything at once, which often means biting off more than what you can chew…

    Congrats on your steps forward!

    Assignment goal 1. Stop spaming. This group is about gardening, can’t grow food with your suggestions.

    I had a friend that was looking at getting a HUGE amount of $. At that time he was looking at buying an island…. Then it hit him…. When you have an Island you don’t have a dentist, you don’t have police, you don’t have grocery stores, you are building civilization from scratch. Things like roads, telephone lines, electric lines all have to be shipped and built and…… maintained.

    Hearing this from him, I then related how much this was the exact state of affairs with prepping when your primary system you have depended on for so many years might go away, it is hare to adapt and make the changes needed to survive. Cuba did this when they lost relations with the USA, they made the transition but they also lost people in doing that transition.

    It is endless trying to prepare for everything, and I have come to the conclusion you cannot. That said one can prepare for the essentials needed for life, and build a community that shares your values.

    You are right. When you get it wrong you won’t get much power out of the system….
