Greetings!
Imagine a world where access to the internet, grocery stores, and (gasp) cell phone service unexpectedly goes down for days, weeks, or even months. Urgent voices warn of a coming depression where families will be forced to become self-reliant for food, water, and basic needs.
Are we approaching a time where trade and barter will be the only option available to the general population for obtaining products and services? If access to some of the things we take for granted today are taken away tomorrow due to circumstances beyond our control will we be prepared to, at the very least, feed our families? No. We are not prepared – not even close.
This FREE guide (65 pages in .pdf format) charts our journey to Self-Sufficient Living starting with growing our own food then setting up basic, street-level trade and barter systems in our local communities. Even apartment dwellers with limited space, on a back patio, can become Self-Sufficient Citizens. Please copy, forward, share this information with your family, friends and others.
Let’s begin!
