  • good video, too bad only 2k views. Don't forget to learn how to defend yourself from others that may come for what you have. look at katrina, and other disasters in recent times. don't believe what the mindless libs tell you about guns !! some people respect a cops badge, but EVERYONE respects a gun. back in the day they didn't call them a peace maker for nothing ! you owe it to your family to teach them how to competently use guns for self defense.. good luck !

  • THis is the attitude that I will never understand!

    Basically, this woman will succomb to the gang of bikers to be raped, robbed and/or Killed, rather then fight to save the lives or loved ones and family?????

    GUNS are a tool, nothing more, just like a hammer or a saw, each has their own uses, each is a means of survival.

    IF YOU HONESTLY BELIEVE that with what may be coming that everyone will have enough and won't want what you have, then you are like the JEWS facing the SUM NAZIS in 1939

  • its ok to use Skype. But an improvement: Record on both sides the audio. Wait for the guest to send you this data (via mail on a usb stick). Than take both audio records and vola!

  • I really like this: Preparedness is not an isolated thing. It's an empowering thing. And I just couldn't be happy if I knew my neighbor was hungry. We don't have to have it all, just enough.

  • Good ideas. Get your kids interested in dehydrating bananna chips. Easiest thing in the world to do. Fun, economical, and healthier than potato chips fried in oil and salted. Once they get used to the crunch of bananna chips, you'll never go back. Slice banannas with the skin on then peel, dip in lemon juice and water, place on screens and put in the sun or in a dehydrator until they are dry but flexible. As a person with a degree in home ec, I'm thrilled with self-sufficiency. Nikki

  • peakmoment is always a great inspiration for me.

    Thank you very much indeed!

  • I think people used to store root crops in barrels of sand. Also the Indians of the Southwest may have used wood ashes.

  • Why is a root cellar not possible in California or Mexico? I thought the temperature was a constant 55 degrees F at about 6 feet below the surface everywhere on the planet.

    Is it because the soil is harder or am I just wrong?

  • @zigzigerblat The ground temperature at 6ft will be roughly equal to the annual average temperature, so it will be higher in warmer climates

  • @Ape65 Isn't there a reasonably shallow depth at which the temperature is consistent planet-wide (with the exception of volcanic or hot springs)?

  • @zigzigerblat No. Eventually if you go deep enough the rock starts to heat up.

  • @Ape65 Yea, about a mile down in to the earth.  I am talking about something between 6 and 20 feet underground. I know spring water is ice cold wherever you go.

  • @zigzigerblat cellar are uncommon in earthquake country.

  • if for some reason you cannot cook your dry beans you could always sprout them...lowers the calorie content but bumps up all the nutrient content and I am pretty sure the fiber stays the same

  • It sure would be nice to have a fallout shelter these days with things like Fukushima and roving zombie biker cannibal gangs, make a nice root cellar too.

  • What a great video post, I will definitely have to buy her book to read on how to get more into storing food for me

    Thank you so much always so much help

  • Aleays great when U interview those who do In my part of KS root cellars & food drying works In regards to canning, brining,pickling over the long term I wonder about the consumables that come with the process. Lids, salt, vinegar & other ingredient that may ne be available in the long term I suppose if U R making wine U could make vinegar In another forum a recall a woman from TX making herself crazy trying to find out they preserved food in her area in days before easy energy

  • I will have to check out her book. Sounds like just what I've been looking for. Amazing inspiration !

  • Awesome! She's a prepper but isn't going crazy about it. As the survival podcast says 'live a better life if times get tough or even if they don't'.

  • brilliantly realistic! ...I'm curious ...how do you preserve the potatoes? ...in a cold storage room or do you can them too

    thanks for sharing

  • Delightful interview.

    Thank you Janaia and Kathy.

    Community is what will save us.

  • here on the oregon coast we often have power outages from storms in the winter...sometimes for a whole week. sometimes roads are cut off and phone lines too. it's been a great eye opener for me and good exercise for our village to learn to be more self sufficient...

  • I have really gotten into pickling with vinegar and salt. I am finding that using pickled vegetables with rice,noodles, soups and strews is a good way to have a filling and nutritious meal without using additional seasonings or meat. When you brine fruit, you get a wonderful sweet aspect to your pickles. It's the easiest way to preserve food around here.

  • great video :)

  • More revolutionary than the Arab spring and OWS combined!

  • This is one of the most positive and realistic views on food prepping I have ever seen.

    Thumbs up on the video.
