10) I agree with this idea! I was thinking of a gardening program where the local gardeners help out those non-green thumb types to get them set, and pass on the knowledge. Maybe stop by once a week to see how their gardens are coming, offer suggestions, tips etc. A seed exchange/saving program. Farming, how to farm without modern petrol based inputs. How to hay using a scythe. How to properly hay. A breeding program of the local livestock.
11) That is a tough one. I was thinking those areas large enough for a formal hospital that is where the community would concentrate fuel and generators, maybe heat adjacent buildings.
12) That would probably require a pre-SHTF census with some kind of water testing kit (IIRC Daisy posted an article about water testing kits). Then, a water management program and make sure everyone understands NOT to contaminate water supplies.
13) I dunno about that one. Could be a one way trip.
14) I would only say if it does not take away materials, labor from other life saving items that are needed immediately.
15) Not sure on that one. But I can say I buy salt for curing meats in bulk. I would be ok with curing/smoking meats for people in exchange for helping me bring in hay, firewood, etc.
16) Game management program. If someone takes a deer, cannot not use it all before it goes bad, maybe give part to the neighbors with the expectation they will do the same.
