Well, I come from Australia, so to start with, our end-of-financial-year is 30 June - and tax returns go in by 31 October every year. That being said, my...
Just a little thought provoking question for you all and myself. If you were suddenly cut off from the outside world with just the homestead you have right now...
Well Lamar, I'm afraid that I would only be half prepared. I have not means of heating my home except city gas. I have wanted to get a wood stove or pellet...
A very interesting question LaMar! I'm afraid we would not be very prepared at all! We have just moved out here to our little plot of land, so we haven't...
More to the point, while the CDC prefers isolating the sick, the WTO recommends isolating the well (in other words- don't go out) for six to eight weeks in the...
I'm fairly sure we'd be fine- our house was built in 1850 so it was designed to be heated with wood. We have plenty of candles for light, food, wood, a well...
Here is a suggestion for a survival kit that I use for info when I teach ARC professional survival courses, feel free to add items if you think of something...
--I am a daycare provider, and I just had to say that was a great list. Thanks for your info. In HeathenHomestead@yahoogroups.com, "lamar5292" <lamar5292@...> ...
I think the biggest problem we would run into would be feeding the animals.We have enough food and water ect. but I buy feed and hay once a week. I have a...
This is a good point.I think there would have to be a lot of understanding on the part of bill collectors ect. to keep small buisnesses from folding. My...
... animals. I don't own horses or chickens anymore. But when I lived in Montana and we had our 5 horses. All Drafts. (we called them our 2000lb dogs) We...
I think most of us are trying to build, create or desire a perfect homestead but that may mean different things to different people- so what is your idea of a...
Thanks Leigh, I was a high school teacher in an all girls treatment center for 10 years- I had to keep their interest by creating questions to make them think....
We're no where close to being that prepared yet. We've set down our goals and paying off debts has been at the top of the list. We're waiting on our tax...
I was just cruising through and noticed that some of them aren't active anymore. Just wanted to let you guys know.... whoever it is that needs to know, that...
Early congrats on the baby, children certainly do clarify what we want in life for long term stability! LaMar ... our goals and paying off debts has been at...
I am planning on building a cellar like the ones my grandparents and parents used to store their vegetables and bottled foods in. So I did some research and...
Interesting. When I get my property I'll put in a root celler. When we lived on the ranch, we had the well pump and pressure tank under ground. Because the...
Our old farmhouse has a root cellar that has probably been here since the house was built (late 1700's). It's an area accessible through our pantry and...

Cellars in our area flood each spring because the water table is so high. Lots of folks try to store things (year round) or partially finish it off (like a...
Wassail One thing I found lacking in anyone's response was the mention of a firearm with a good 100 rounds of ammo. Best case scenario, you will have no...
I use propane, and yesterday on the news a utah couple living in a cabin were nearly killed as their cabin was completely leveled by a propane explosion. They...
