I prep, but am not a dooms day prepper. I garden, and am a pressure cooking fool. If the price of vegetables or meat is good but I don't have the freezer space, vegetables, soup, stews, and chili pressure cooked/jared for long term storage without electricity. I also buy a little extra canned whatever when I am able to also add to my "oh shit" food cache in my basement. If it is food but does not need electricity to keep, that is added when able. I rotate from the cache for normal meals. Older stuff is used and replaced with new so I don't have a bunch of expired food. My only critical issue is water. I have zero storage, and storing the required amount of water for X people for X amount of time takes up a lot of space. I would not rely on hunting for food for very long...If enough people are forced to that, the animal and edible plant population will be depleted. For food, I try to have enough for my family for a month or so if a storm takes out the power or other natural disaster, or if we need to leave the area for what ever reason. Even have a 8000 watt portable generator that can back feed the house. We can run 90% of the house on that, and have for 12 hours when a storm knocked the town off the grid. If you let others know you stockpile food and have a generator, you better have guns and are willing to use them...if things really get bad, people will turn bad and they will come for your shit and not care about you.
I even have chickens and ducks for eggs/meat.
are there prepared folks on here, and if so, how do you prep?
