Permaculture is a means to develop life skills and enhancements for sustainable living and beyond. "To practice permaculture is to actively create a positi …

A group focused on learning and practicing emergency/disaster/apocalyptic preparedness, specifically for families. A survival situation presents unique challenges for families. The intent of this group is to look at survivalism from the perspective of families with children. Why use the term 'survivalism'? Isn't that for fringe weirdos? Not exclusively, no...
