Kart, I know people should keep low-key about their preps, but how do you find others in your area? I live in an area with about 11 homes. We live about 5 miles from a town of approx 30,000 when our local university is in session. None of us even talk to each other except in passing, and others I don’t trust at all. I would very much like to be a part of a group that could depend on each other if something happens.
There’s a couple web sites one being:
http://www.preppergroups.com and the other is
http://www.whenshtf.com/forum.php that have boards arranged by region or state so you can reachout.
Also talk around at your church bring up thinks casually and see where it leads.
