long term food storage

Sam gives his own feedback on the preppers that were featured in this show, as well as some of the concepts involved in their method of prepping.  Aside from talking about the details of each individual prepper and some various feedback on their plans, he also talks about:

  • The general 2 main types of preppers
  • Gear vs. Skills
  • Prepping in a huge urban area like NYC, and bugging in
  • Security vs. Food
  • The “stereotypical” prepper and where that idea will lead us
  • The concepts behind “prepping” at The Human Path

There are still a few slots open in the Urban Core Basic, where you can learn, practice and apply preparedness concepts in hands-on and scenario-based environments - Online calendar and registration

    Hey Sam I really like your “rant” at the end. Yes, we have to create something new…not just hunker down , come out and do business as usual. For the past 4 years I have been building a Permaculture Center…it had been a long time plan and finally things can together to do it. I have no formal permaculture education but have been self educated much like it sounds you have been. But the way I found you is I am a new student of Jessica and Alan PermacultureEducatoin.com whom you had just recently interviewed. I am about 1/2 through the course and it has been only 4 days. If one has the prior knowledge and experience it can go quite fast. As I take breaks from my studies I have been listening to your podcasts and really enjoy them. The Prepper series is quite interesting and I’m glad you introduced them to me. I have a youtube channel as well where I try to share ideas and some of my experience and the link is on my website if you are interested. Take Care Kevin Jarvis
