Great post. We don’t have livestock, but know you need the land to grow food for them. We don’t have that either. Our house sits on an acre of land with 2 sheds. So doesn’t leave us much space.
Has anyone tried aeroponics or aquaponics. I am looking into both. The latter one is interesting. The fish feed the plants and the plants feed the fish. But not so sure in an EMP it would work. Thinking along the lines that might need solar all the way for this or wind turbine.
Also we are having our wood burning fireplace redone as it is in dire need of work. Then we will be fencing in a place for firewood so no one can get to it. I am sure people get desperate they may try to haul off what you have stored up for fireplace. I have heard around here that that has happened.
