Please pray for my family I have 3 relatives with raging cancer, one signed the hospice papers today. I am an only child. Everyone is dying around me, and I am keeping my joy in the Lord. Praying for swift departures as I don't want to watch them all suffer.
I'm so sorry, I'm praying for you and your family ❤
🙏🙏🙏🩸

I need to share joy. My 75 year old Navy Vet husband is coming home Monday after a month in ICU and rehab. Praise God.
😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
That’s wonderful news! Praise The Most High!
♥
❤
Great news. Thank him for his service to our country
If you gave college credits for all the knowledge farmers actually have, it would be a doctorate degree. 😊
Agreed 💯
I was at a house party right before the pandemic and there was a dude who was mocking farmers for being a bunch of idiots. I said, "Yeah, who do those idiots think they are, trying to stand between us and starvation." I come from generations of farmers. I am a farmer.
Both my mothers side (dairy farmers) and fathers (food farmers). All very smart and no college degrees amongst them.
👁👁 Right.
👍 agree 100 percent
The first year I was married my husband was drafted into the army to serve in the Vietnam war.I was 3 months pregnant.That was 58 years ago.When he came back from the army he became a farmer.Times were hard.We rented a miners shack with an outside outhouse and a water pump outside.We rented it for 10.00 dollars a month.I wish I could go back in time and relive that time period.
❤❤❤❤
This.
I'd give EVERYTHING for the health I had in the 70s...I have COPD and get winded after 5 steps...
❤
@@ladyaly864 yeah my copd is annoying as all get out o.o
I bet you learned more in those years than all the degrees earned in colleges.
I retired last year at 70. Kept up my license and today at 71 able to do telehealth part time and we are debt free ❤. I have a good hubby like James 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻😉❤️
❤❤❤
Hi! @Snookie53. How do i get started on telehealth? Im an RN.
67 working triage as an RN, hoping to work to 70
This is my dream!
My sister is a retired 25 yr. CRNP from the county and state in Women's health !!! She was a 24/7 caregiver with me for a long time until 2/22/22 and has been trying very hard to get a job with no success 😔 Due to her being specialised it is difficult to get employment that is wanting GP's !!! Also her license/malpractice limits her as well !!! How did you get on with Teledoc ??? Thank you 😊
Yesterday my husband notiiced a few boxes in the dumpster. We are snowbirds and getting ready to drive north, so he thought he would grab a few boxes. He picked up a box and noticed it was full of canned food. A second box had canned food in it too. He brought them home. We went through them and there was only one can of refried beans that had expired (2023). We used the can of refried beans yesterday. There were over 50 cans of soup, peaches, apriccots, vegetables, and ravioli. Bags of lentils, rice, and 😂macaroni!
Good for you guys! Glad you rescued those boxes of good food! 🙏🏻❤️
What a blessing ❤
What an unexpected treasure.
Wasteful Americans will soon be learning a valuable lesson about appreciation for everything they’ve been given!
What a wonderful blessing.🙂
Please pray for my husband, he is my best friend, he has stage 4 pancreatic cancer. We are heartbroken. We adore each other and although we serve the Lord he does not want to leave me behind. He is such a wonderful man and my soul aches for what he is enduring. Praying for healing and comfort.
Sending prayers!
@susancoward5067 Thank you, Susan.
Prayers going up 🙏. Keep The Faith❤
Prayers for you and hubby....
Prayers!
Every month I either buy my extra canned foods OR ( I can't do both) I'm spending it on oil lamps and lanterns/wicks and oil, battery operated lanterns and batteries. Also I've purchased all sorts of used vintage homesteading books.Heck Ive even invested in a loom and am teaching myself weaving and spinning. This month I went a bit over budget BUT its worth it ; I bought organic bulk grains, purchased 8 chicks, bedding, food, etc.. NOW I'm getting my coop cleaned out and ready to go ( I haven't had chickens for almost 2 years).
WOO HOO!
👍
That sounds exciting!
Way to go!
Way to power on
WOW! That is awesome! I wish I had room for chickens.
Use...The brains that God and granny gave you... Best advice ever😂🙏❤️
GOTTA MIX IN THE HORSE SENSE AND COMMON SENSE, IT ALL WORKS SYNERGETICALLY!!!❤❤❤
❤
I love that line!
Miss my Grams so much wish I had been able to spend more time with all of them so smart Total Survivor!❤️🙏✌️✅🥸🌈✨💕😇🤔🥲🫶🫣😳😅😂💕🦋🍀🦍🐾
Absolutely 😊
My husband is a farmer, a physics major, an electrical whiz, a welder, and can fix any machine on the farm. A very smart guy.
I am a retired RN and since became a certified herbalist. Got burned out on nursing (ER/ ICU and such) so I left mans pharmacy and went to God's. Love you Patara. Keep on the firing line my friend
I've got stuff under my bed, in my closet. Wherever I got an empty spot to put boxes of stuff. Where there's a will, there's a way!!. Water in my trunk, in corner of my kitchen. I don't mind walking around boxes of stuff next to my bed. I'd rather do that than sitting around moaning and groaning about how I'm going to starve. If I do, can't blame no one but myself!! Thank you Patara. Love listening to you!!❤❤
Same here. Became furious when I found out the landlord was visiting when I was not home. Have been rearranging and finding new areas.
You sound like me. lol 😂
Number ten cans stacked behind every door in our upstairs. Prepping for a few years, hubby builds new shelves and I fill them with canned goods. It feels very satisfying.
Canning 15 lb of meats tomorrow. 🇺🇸
@ms.sunshinesue8719 What's his excuse for trespassing when you were not given notice?
Dear sweet girl,
I'm 76. Live in a little house in suburb. I cannot move. No debt, prepared as much as possible. But every day I do one more thing. God is good and trusting in Him. Love, love, love who you are...❤
I'd rather be bugged out with a plumber then a psychologist or European art specialist. Everybody poops.
Side note, the pre summer patio sales are coming. Stock up on solar patio lights. They can sit patiently on the window sill, then light up a few rooms at night. No electricity, and no flames(small kids d and pet proof)
Yes, that's my next thing in the new t few days.😊
Lol! You got that right.
Great Tip!👍
😂 lol my wife says the same thing...I'm a plumber
That's a great idea. Glad you said. Going to buy some this weekend!! Thanks!!!
I am so tired of my son-in-law putting me down for preparing. I am ex military and was trained to prepare,plus my Mother taught me to can sew and knit and crochet. I appreciate all the skills that my Mother taught me. Thank you for all the information that you have given me
Just keep moving forward. People will either get on board, or distance themselves... just keep moving forward 🙏
Chin up, friend!
He'll find out!
I learned those skills myself. My Mother taught me NOTHING.
A friend of mine, who is 70 years old, continues to renew her nursing license...just in case.
Me too❤
Smart!
Very wise
I wish I had kept mine
Very wise ☺️!!
PLEASE listen to Patara. We are dangerously close to having to hunker down and live on whatever food, water, medicine and all necessities that we have now for a very long time. There won't be time or opportunity to run out to get what we need. Patara has to choose her words carefully. You must pay attention and read between the lines. Time is extremely short. Watch Iran, Israel and China. What happens there will affect this country very quickly and severely. It will likely be multifaceted and overwhelming. We could be forced to live in a 18th century world in an instant. This weekend the situation is extremely volatile. I don't even want to venture too far from my home. PRAY Prepare and PRAY some more. I know that it's scary. Get right with God and pray for wisdom and discernment. We are all here at this time for a reason and God will equip us with what we need, but we have to do our part. Blessings.
Amen 🙏
My husband may not have a college education, but he's a master carpenter (loves to build furniture), can do any kind of remodeling, roofing, electrical, plumbing, or cement work, and can fix/rebuild motors. He does all of the maintenance on our tractors and vehicles, as well as home maintenance and remodeling. He was a volunteer firefighter/EMT for over 25 years and has a lot of medical and first aid skills, too. He's a big history buff and keeps current with politics and local, state, national, and world events. I'd match his intellect and abilities to anyone with multiple degrees in multiple fields. He's the go to person in our neighborhood and circle of friends when anyone needs advice or help with any project. Just because someone doesn't have a degree doesn't mean they aren't intelligent, skilled, or knowledgeable. Oh, and he's genuinely a nice guy, too, and a great husband, father, brother, and friend. (I have a degree and worked in the medical field for many years, and I think he's way smarter than I am!)
And a lot of us learned from our parents(born during the depression) and grandparents. I make my own soap and have hundreds of jars of meat and veggies that I have canned. When I worked full time I bought totes and stocked up on paper towels, toilet paper etc and when I moved my kids and friends thought I was crazy for having all of that until C-19 hit and they couldn't find toilet paper. One of them even texted me saying ...you are not crazy! I have taught people how to garden, make soap, traded skills I had in exchange for them showing me how to do something new. God opens the doors we need and closes doors that need to be closed. Listen to the instincts God gave you, keep an open mind and you will survive, lean on God he's got your back!
Amen ❤
My father, a farmer, likewise had a grade 6 education, but his skill set for running a farm and working as a carpenter doing construction, went way beyond any university degree. We always felt "less than" by our city relatives, but I see now how fortunate we were to be raised how we were. All the food we ate growing up was organic even before it was a thing. Look at us being so cool back then. 😊
Absolutely 💯 , had an amazing childhood , in the country , with grandparents ,family , hard work & Graft growing food ect , but amazing that in itself a blessing , also critical skills lacking bigtime in our young 😢 .
My dad was.a.farmer he only had a 6th grade education, too.raised 13 kids fixed his own equipment. We had milk from the cows mom, raised a big garden, and canned and frozen pies made homemade bread. I picked up my skills from her.
My mother went to school in a one room school house graduating 8th grade. She probably could have done better on a test than some of the children of today. She was on her Grandparents farm from age 4 until 14 and then went to work in a weaving mill till age 25 when she got married.
I was born into a "prepper" family, AKA farmers. Momma had me working in the garden by the age of four, and helping in the canning kitchen, too. Small hands, trained quickly to snap green beans and shell peas. I've lived in cities, but returned to the country. I retired from nursing and relearned how to nurse the soil...all debts paid except the usual utilities. My husband and I are very skilled. My daddy was a master carpenter and he taught me well. He was also a mechanic and taught me how to fix (older) vehicles. I love my tractor, but I can also work with a couple mules😊. My uncle was a wrestler, and, as most of his seven children were boys, he taught me how to defend myself against them, lol. He passed away about a week ago😢, at 87 years. I kinda feel lost...my family is why I am here and for them, I continue to teach, preach and prepare...
Thank you for all your wonderful videos!
Much love and respect from this old lioness.
Sending Hugs and ❤
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🌹👍
We need all the LIONESSES we can get!! Real LIONS, too!!
@@camillewing656 , I'm the female version of the two uncles in "Second Hand Lions", lol.
Two 5 gallon buckets stacked, covered with an old round table cloth and a lap quilt on top of that. Makes a great, cute side table and stores about a month's worth of food.
Please all new people, listen to Patara, prepare now. It's getting very serious and you don't have much time. Prayers for all. Most importantly prepare spiritually.
Please where do I start, I work all the time I don't have that much time
About 4 tears ago i had a dream of famine coming, some places worst than other. So if you have a piece of land and even in an apartment you can grow certain things do it. Every day things are getting worse, wars rumors of war. Now Israel is waiting for Iran to attack them, this is not looking good for us either . The news are not telling the truth about how many people have come to the country through the open borders. By now must be at least 20 million people. China, Russia and Iran probably by now have their armies here. And they are not doing anything about it the borders are still open. God help us, lots of prayers for this country and for people to wake up. Only God can help us😢
Husband recently retired from his job of 25 yr years…because it was the only way for him to pull out his 401k.
We already lost 300 grand in 2016..we just didn’t want to risk loosing more.
Paid off debts, built a greenhouse, put in 2 2500 gallon water catchment tanks for our roof. Putting in a wood burning stove, repairing things, gathering supplies…
I’ve been learning how to grow vegetables and can them the past 6 years. Getting our meat birds soon. Doing what we can to be a bit more self sufficient. If the Lord tarries, he will have to find another job…in a few years..but we are trying to be ready for today.
Praying for us all…we will get through this..in Jesus name. Maranatha! 🥰
Exactly, I grew up farming. I have been an electrician, US Marine, I have done carpentry, and plumbing, I also have 3 degrees.
I’m awe of your accomplishments. Don’t stop!
Thank you for serving and Thank you for being you!❤

Neighbor grew up in Italy during world war II. She told me that the farmers would come in to the city with food or a loaf of bread people. Bread is one piece of furniture. Those Farmers had more wealth than people in the city.
My grandmother sold bread
Agricultural education with hands-on learning should be part of the curriculum in every public and private school.
Absolutely 💯 . No farmers no food .
Agreed! 💯
Agree but unfortunately they don't want to teach the skills needed to survive!
It used to be taught years ago.
It’d be a lot better education than this crap they have in the libraries today!!
I bought tea lights and some solar lights today. Not much, but every little bit helps.
They have curtain lights that use AA batteries. I have them in 4 windows and they're pretty bright. Just stock up on batteries. 😂
Make sure you have the matches too. Seriously, knew someone who had candles, power went out for a whole, and she had no matches!
Yes it does👌
@@rjay7019and keep batteries in a cool place, but probably not in refrigerator
I canned 14 jars of food today. I am making homemade catfood now saves money. Praying for America 🇺🇸
Canned for the first time ever today! My mom taught me how to make strawberry jam ❤
Better than anything you can buy.enjoy
Keep building that skill! It comes in handy and it is so useful when you least expect it!
Congrats. Now you will be looking at Everything and asking," can I can that?" LOL
It is so addicting! Welcome to the club❤
Best jam you'll ever eat.😊
I plan on trying to can strawberry jam. Going to see if Patara has a video on it
Hey I picked up five cans today praying for our country
Someone will thank you later
I think the US as we know it is coming to an end
I still collect ( cans any time I’m at the grocery store… things not in my list. Always . It adds up quicker than you think.
We are homesteading. I have degrees in chemistry and human biology and my husband is using his 3 graduate degrees to support our lifestyle and building up our homestead. We are not prideful, we are all in the human condition and see others as equals. People can judge us for driving older paid for vehicles and a property that’s below our means. We know we’re debt free and loving our lives. I learn as much and fast as I can. Know I’m blessed to have the resources to prepare. I don’t defend myself when people come over and are surprised at our “inferior” home. We know we’re doing what needs to be done. We also don’t have those people back.
Went out this afternoon and picked wild yarrow for medicine and tea. What a gorgeous day.
🕊
Yarrow is wondercul- ours are just coming up- luv foraging

My Daddy had an 8th grade education. He grew up during the Great Depression, with 13 siblings! He learned a trade, brick & block mason, and later got his GED. My Dad's career lasted 50 years, and he became a Master Mason and Carpenter, and General Contractor. He could weld, build whole houses from the ground up. He had customers in 3 different states, and he always said "if you learn something by actually doing it, you'll never forget it" My Dad passed away in 2018, but his legacy lives on in me and my 2 brothers, one of them is also a Master Brick Mason & General Contractor. Practical skills will NEVER fail you.
I grew up on Long Island ....but moved upstate NY (very rural) 15 yrs ago and let me tell you I am glad I moved ....these farmers are some very bright people and very down to earth...I am glad to be friends with them
Hey Russelder9743, I grew up on Long Island also. I moved to the south 30 years ago. Though, I miss my family, I have no regrets. Married to my southern soul male (my 🤠) for 27 years
I look at preppers who farm and take care of animals as extremely hard workers! I have nothing but respect for them. I think most of us feel this way. 😊❤😊
Just with Iran’s reaction, gold skyrocketed this morning! That’s just one example.
Made myself some healing tea not feeling so great not flu but body aches and stomach
Peppermint, lemon balm, ginger, rag weed leaves dried from last year made great hot tea and add honey
Great pain relief
Hope everyone is doing well
Praying for everyone to be protected by god
I'm 68 and my parents came thru the depression. My father lived the "Grapes of Wrath". They taught me the skills . . . Everything from sewing to firearms, canning to processing. In my younger years I didn't put those skills to much use but I never forgot them. As I have gotten older . . . It's how I live my life. Remembering the ways I was taught has really brought me a level of peace and comfort that no matter what I will be ok.
Amen🙏🏻🙏🏻
I found Patera just as they found their home where she’s at now. She’s been a great teacher, preacher, moma, sister, daughter and so on. God bless Patera ❤️
I grew up in the city. I married a country man. He knows waaay more physical skills than I do. He can fix anything. I learn so much from him.
Makes me think of the words to the song “Country boy/girl can survive”
I have learned over my lifetime to never assume, judge or have unrealistic expectations of others. It is difficult.
I just put in 8 more box gardens adding to the 4 I had. I got 2 skids of manure and dirt. I’m 61 w disabled husband and I just bought 20 chickens. I build a coop last year, canned 1,100 jars in last 2 years and so I know canning. I was a CNA for 20 yrs and I know more then just first aid . I hurt, I’m tired and taking care of him , chickens, dog, canning, building, trying to put house together sense we moved . This our 3 rd yr here n I still haven’t painted lol… gardens n panty set up came first. I planted fruit trees, strawberries, blueberries, peaches, pears, apples. Made apple jack, own apple cider, learned so much ! I baked bread for the neighbors just to practice lol. If I can do it w arthritis, fibromyalgia, and breathing problems anyone can! I even bought tons of wheat berries, sugar, salt, hand grinder, froze eggs, butter, made ghee, working my tail off and I see things getting worse. I know I have my pew pew w me, my stuff to go in it n lots of extra. I don’t drink but bought vodka and rum n whiskey for making vanilla and first aid , cough medicine. Everyday I learn more. Made plenty of mistakes. But I just say to myself, hey, you made the mistake now when it’s not life or death. And look at all you’ve succeeded in.! Keep prepping peeps !
Better to have and not need, than to need and not have. This goes for every part of preparedness.
You are so right Patera. One of the smartest people I knew had little education. He could just about fix anything . If he didn't have the part he would Jerry rig something to get it going. Always amazed me.
That’s my Husband! He didn’t graduate High School but truly can fix anything! He is the living embodiment w “A country boy can survive!” A Degree 13:21 doesn’t mean you aren’t ignorant!!!
That was my dad and my brother developed his talents❤
“Brain cells clicking between my ears” I love your sense of humor Patara. Keep up the great work !
We had an Eclipse 7 years ago . Then we have this one. Does that remind you of a story in the Bible. Joseph interpreted a dream 7 years of plenty 7 years of famine. I don't know about you but in my spirit I have more of an urgency now more than I have ever had. I really feel time is running out because Joseph had prepared he saved a nation. Our nation is our family first. Then there will be others that one needs saving. But pray for a discernment and be careful.
I have never had an empty pantry and I am 76 years old! I love farmers and their wives. My husband is a Jack of all Trades and he is a master of many! People shock me all the time. They are about to find out the mettle of country boys! 😊😊
Also, it doesn't take up space to get caught up on your appointments, but it's an important way to prepare for harder times ahead. Dentist, eye doctor, car oil changes, tires rotated, etc.
I made wild violet jelly, dandelion jelly and lilac jelly this week for the first time. 😊
Awesome! I was just telling my grandson we could try to make dandelion jelly. He thought I was joking!🤣👍
Enjoy your jellies, we still have snow cover. Not kidding, kids can still sled on the lawn. As for your dandelions... dandelion greens and wine
I just meet up with a group of ladies that are part of Dress a Girl Around the World. They are teaching me to sew in exchange for me helping them cut their fabric. Sadly, I'm 55 and never learned but I really think that it will be a necessity coming up.
For the suburban woman in a 1 bedroom apartment getting ready to move to the/ more of the country - You can best "prepare" by learning skills. Maybe picking up some basic tools and equipment like a heavy duty basic sewing machine, ironing board, iron, a water bath canner pot, maybe a pressure canner. Find a community garden in your area and spend some volunteer time there learning. Is there a Habitat for Humanity chapter working on a house in the area? If so consider volunteering to pick up some tool use and building skills. It also time to visit the local library(s) a couple of times per week. 12:02
Excellent suggestions!
Yes ma’am. First step is defense and then skills skills skills. Become useful to someone’s needs!
We just purchased an rv to load up! As someone who just moved, over half our belongings are food stuff, no one complained about moving all of the food, the chickens, or the coops! We need the provisions more than the “stuff”!❤❤❤
Im 63, helped my granmother can. I learned from her, bought a canner ,jars, lids, 9 years ago. I love canning. ❤😊 Make 2 big pots of soups, beans, chicken, pork, hamburger, beef tips, veggies and can them. Not all at once, but 2 pots at a time. 😂 Time to start again, and this stuff makes life easy when you work, just open and heat up the soups, stews, cchicken and dumplings, turnip greens and stuff you canned. 😊
At the risk of sounding redundant... thank you Patara for telling it like it is.
😊
Amen Patara! Having a Degree doesn’t mean a person isn’t ignorant!
Yes, it works both ways! People with degrees can be arrogant AND stupid.
@@ninnymuggins5159 and a lot of folks without degrees can be just as arrogant and stupid.
I'm so incredibly thankful for the multitude of gifts God blessed me with!! Spanish, some ASL, canning, cooking, superb math and language skills, healthcare teachings, art, music, management skills, sewing, carpentry, learning gardening. A little bit of everything!! God is so GOOD!!! ❤🙏🙌
A bearded Iris ! I had 45 different verities!
I especially love the purple ones. I have rhizomes that came from my granny's yard over 60 years ago.
Farmers and ranchers are some of the smartest and most able people I have ever known! They have to be, their livelihood depends on it!
I once worked for the IRS, and the people with the most income were the farmer. I was very surprised but very happy.❤🎉
I think I have started propping
because that's how I was raised..mom always had everything we needed because she prepped..we are going back to the 60s...love y'all 😊❤
Gotcha. My Mom always kept a pantry. My is on steroids!
Keep your eyes on Israel saints!
I live in suburban NJ. I work in NYC. I am a professional useless person. 😆I doubt that a homestead is in my future. However I have learned so much from you and others here on UA-cam , many skills in the last 5 years. When I see someone milking a goat, i think, how awesome! At least from the UA-cam prepping community I am familiar with, seems to me you guys are the smartest ones around. And willing to share your experience. Thank you. Praise Yah.
Praise Yah indeed! You are not useless. You are right where Yahuah put you for a reason. Head up. He has a plan for you even if you’re not on a homestead.
South Jersey has some beautiful country to visit, relax, and enjoy even if it is for a day trip.
Love this video.. I live in rural Nova Scotia.. I have grade 9 ..
have friends with less.. don't mistake schooling for education.. country smart is survival smart.. : ) prepare !
I'm one of those dumb-sounding southern speaking hicks from south Georgia. I've been part of "the community" for over 10 years now, ever since I read "One Second After". You know, we-un's from the south all got us a 6th grade edumacation.
By the way, I also have a Master's degree in Math, and I'm a member of Mensa.
Tubs stocked with canned goods and such. There is always a corner to stack them.
1 maybe 2 trips with the dollie
My ex husband farmed, fished and use to hunt a lot, we had 9 acres, I gardened and canned. I had us about debt free. He left me for another woman that’s a bar hag. Breaks my heart every day.
So sad. But keep going
He will wish he had stayed with you during hard times. Hold your head high. Hugs!
Keep prepping and don't look back. I divorced last husband when I was 60. You can do it. I'm almost 78 now.
Bless your heart.🙏🏻❤️
Keep your head up stay strong & keep moving forward.🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻
Hold your head up high! You can do it ❤❤❤
I prepare as often as I can!! I am not too worried about myself..I save much because I dont want my Grandkids to ever go hungry!! Not one day...Love you Patera❤... and folks need to know you tell the truth!!!
❤
Same , my grandkids 🕊️♥️
Shabbat Shalom have a wonderful FRIDAY Evening.🙏❤🐦
Peace and Peace of the Sabbath to you, too.
Shabbat Shalom my friend Baruch Hashem Neva
Shabbat Shalom and blessings.
Yahuah be with you and yours. Have a delightful Sabbath rest and peace. Enjoy the pause!
Shabbat Shalom 💚
If your single and live in a one bedroom apt. May I recommend putting your bed on stilts or putting it on dressers and use underneath your bed as storage. These serves a two fold purpose. If someone breaks in, they won't have easy access to you and you have expanded your storage space.
I have moved so much that I thought maybe I had some closed bank accounts, uncashed paychecks, or retirement accounts from previous jobs. I checked all my old paperwork, and went onto the state government website and found a $130 check from a previous job. Yeah groceries!
I do a lot of scratch cooking and baking. I learned and am still learning to can for two years now. I can sew and have some medical things.
Props to having the gemologist skills. I left my professional position to buy and live the homestead life. We do it all, the more broad spectrum your skillsets the better. All during my single mother years, I sold at outside markets to supplement my income, canning, soap making, flower and veg starts, gives skills, just read, watch and learn. I'm still learning at age 67. Every....single....day.
We were in the same boat as the lady you are speaking off. We were moving so I drain down all our food reserves to lighten the load. Never again! The illness hit and I was 60% without back up. That cost us financially and mentally. Pay the extra gas to keep stocked up. In today's crazy land I would not recommend postponing. Having something is better than nothing.
When I was going to the University I was waitressing and a single mom while earning my Computer Science...The owner of the cafe said the farmers who come in here with their overalls don't think they are stupid....they are some of the richest men in the county...treat them right!
I agree with never underestimate a farmer. Even the most basic farmer, is one of the best engineers you will ever meet.
Landwirte / Farmer sind die einzigen die die größte Chance haben diese fürchterliche Zeit gut zu überstehen❣️
Danke für diese unglaublich sympathischen, netten und informativen Beiträge. Herzliche Grüße aus Norddeutschland 😊
I have stocked up on rice, coffee, canned goods , dried beans and peas . Plus I can my on veggies and jellies in jars and I put a lot in the freezer in vac sealed bags. Alcohol, wipes …I can sweet and dill pickles in jars. We have chickens too for eggs. We raise our own little chicks . I’m stocking up a little at a time. Thank you Patara for what you’re doing making us stay on our toes so we will have what we need when something happens. The way this world is going it’s coming sooner than we think .
I hope she is just speaking of preparing to stockpile food, there is so much more she can work on … pay down debt, try to save enough cash to keep her new property if something happens before the year is up - pray, get close to God, start getting rid of everything you don’t really need and sell it or donate it or trade it for things you do need. I wish her many blessings in her preparation to move. Love your videos Patara. I know the message from the lady you spoke about may sound totally strange to us - hopefully she is still progressing toward readiness but above all I applaud her for recognizing she needs out of the city and she is clearly awake to the need to prepare. I hope she doesn’t just wait to do everything. God bless.
I live in a large family farm neighborhood with families with 4 generations working all sorts of crops and produce and livestock. It amazes me the skills and knowledge of them and the struggles they get through. It is so saddening the disrespect they get from the governments and people that have no clue where their food comes from. The family farm is an endangered species we should all be concerned about.
Thank you for all you teach us. Life is a learning process that never stops. Talked with the 14yr that I take to school every day about my idea for granny camp this summer. Just stuff like making home made biscuits and cakes, making jelly, how to sew a button, make quilt squares, and other old skills. Said he wasn't really interested and didn't think other kids would be either. Oh well I am here willing to teach.
I'm interested
Reach out to churches, women's shelter, library. You'd be surprised at ages that are interested.
Hi everyone , love from Canada 🇨🇦

Hi from Australia 🇦🇺
I come from a long line of famers in Tennessee & Maryland. My parents were both raised dirt poor. Daddy went thru the depression & then WW2. He was a very kind and generous man. And he was always there for me, especially when we were dropped off in the middle of nowhere without a vehicle.Daddy was my hero. I miss him everyday...
I just bartered a pair of heels (worn for one wedding) for 6 dozen of her eggs 😂!
We live in the same rural neighborhood. We have a large garden and she has chickens and bees. We constantly trade with one another. I preserve, she bakes. We trade products from those skills. We both understand the value of skills, hard work and common sense.
Good message.
Hello! Listening and doing! Thank you for being there for all of us! God bless you!
I used to live in a very tiny apartment and they used to have a broom closet most Apartments here in Texas has an extra closet within it whether it be a coat closet or a broom closet so just use the coat closet for prepping that's what I did. You do what you can with what you got. Like for instance right now I am doing more garden beds in the backyard and because I don't have any extra money for wood or Corners to make a raised bed. I'm using cut down logs and thick branches to create my own country like style raised beds and it's working perfectly. Use what you got with what you have and work with what you got. You need to prep and prepare now because like my mom always says what doesn't happen in 40 years, can happen in one day!
Patera,
You really shine bright ! How proud of your accomplishments you need to be.
As an art educator, a scenic artist for a large theatre in Lancaster County, a muralist for businesses and homeowners, a sign painter and business card designer, l came home every night and worked outside til l couldn't see . I taught myself to garden and can, to knit and crochet, to sew my children's clothing and make a home for our family.
Of everything,l loved the 'home work' the best. That down to earth knowledge is the greatest and most satisfying of all.
I highly recommend learning the skillsets
that serve you best when the going gets rough.
The first stuff I ever canned was pickles, and strawberry jam. Today my wife made some muffins using applesauce that I canned 9 years ago.
Random thought… we are thinking of “spare parts” we need to purchase to keep on the shelf such as extra pump for well, extra oil filters for truck, mower, spare water hoses, etc…
Baby doll, I'm a former welder/fabricator with medgas certs and can also hold a tolerance on a mill.. I currently make a living cutting grass, self-employed...😂😂😂
The looks that I get from some of the creatures that pass by while I'm working stokes my internal fire while I just keep my head down and smile..
I love your message, thank you.🙂
At my home, the compost that I made is my ""black" gold. The honey that I harvested is my "yellow " gold. Any gardening skills on food growing and orcharding or any food preservation skills that I had learn are my "survival" gold. I am so bless by God,. It took me almost 20 years to learn, fail , but I am still learning. Ya, a life-long learning blessed with endless gold that money cannot buy.
I have a dream that one day I will have my own plot of land where I will be able to be self sufficient. For now, I am learning to grow small crops on an apartment windowsill. Thanks for the reminder that even learning essential skills is preparing for bad times
Kept trying. Everything you learn now counts.
❤❤❤
I'm on Medicare and have a supplemental insurance, well, I got my mail today and my supplemental ins. is going up $ 22.00 a month too $211.00 a month ..... WTH .... is everything going up??? Last month my car insurance went up $210.00 more for every 6 months, almost $700.00 for 6 months. Yes, my Taxs went up too. Waiting for my house ins. Damn
You won't like the house ins.
Every time I’ve gotten a raise, my insurance premium increased. Every time!
I raise chickens, quail, and my own produce and bake our own bread. My husband is a successful engineer, I was a legal secretary. I dress modestly and love the Lord. We are blessed with beautiful cars and a home. We are debt free, but I’m treated differently and recently when shopping for a new refrigerator, was told, “ here are the inexpensive ones”. My husband came in and paid cash for the one I wanted and she looked a bit embarrassed. My family rolls their eyes at my preparation and saving ways. But they sure know whom to ask for help when needed. Thank the Lord for being so faithful to us and so good to us.
Sign language will be a great way to communicate if you have to be very careful and quiet
