Thank you very much. I never considered myself a prepper, but have followed this movement. I happened to be raised by parents who grew up during the depression and WWII...Survival meant taking care of your own and growing and preserving your own food. When I was young I observed,and learned... as an adult I found how they survived appealing and continued. Seed saving being only 1 of the many skills needed. Thanks again

Well, anyone who prepares is by definition a "prepper". Homesteaders prepare for the long term and are among some of the most advanced preppers.

Amen to that. I do not like being dependent upon anyone or entity. I was taught to take care myself and how to live off the land. I passed that on to my daughter and still working on my granddaughter. Thanks for your response!
