Xylem Filter

Xylem Filter I cut the bottom off an old water bottle for the dirty water reservoir, and then hung it on a nail to slowly do its thing when I got tired of holding it.  The rubber tubing is pushed through a hole in the water bottles lid.  I had thought the thick rubber tubing […]

Jonathan Prusse

I’m a guy who cares about his family. I want to make sure that those I love have the tools necessary to survive. In my own life I’ve seen the benefits which food storage and self-sufficiency have provided for my own immediate family during times of financial strain. Most of my own experience comes down to farm life, foraging in the woods, scouting, military service and combat deployments; to name several of life’s major building blocks. Not only do I want to share, I want to learn; so give me your insight. And while I do my best to ensure all information is correct; let me know if any corrections need to be made.
