When it comes time to live off of your survivalist food stores, you will likely see some changes for you and your family at mealtime. You can no longer run down to the corner store for ingredients to go in a recipe. You will need to already have the ingredient or just make do without it. So, which prepper recipes will you need on hand for cooking?

If a natural disaster strikes and you’re forced to make do without the luxuries you’ve been accustomed to, would you be able to survive? Disasters of all kinds seem to be more common these days, from major weather events to riots, to financial crisis.
To be prepared to survive, you’ll need to learn survivalist skills. And if you have some survivalist skills already, you’ll want to hone those skills. You want to make sure that you’re prepared to live off the grid if you have to.

Do you dream of one day having a homestead, a piece of land to be able to grow things and maybe raise animals on? One day can seem like a distant dream, but if you take steps to work toward that dream now, you’ll feel like you’re actively working toward something, not to mention how much easier it’ll be once you’ve acquired a few homesteading skills (before you even have a homestead).
If you live in a city or suburb, as I do, it may seem like it’s impossible to work on your homesteading skills. It turns out that there are quite a lot of things you can do now to prepare for your one day homestead.
