Community. Local skills. Local Food. Adapting in place. But self-reliant, no. We are in this together. In these unsure times of climate change, peak oil, and economic instability, the one thing we do have is each other. To quote Toby Hemenway, "When we create a web of interdependencies, we grow richer, stronger, safer, and wiser." Permaculture is a means to develop life skills and enhancements for sustainable living and beyond. "To practice permaculture is to actively create a positi …

A group focused on learning and practicing emergency/disaster/apocalyptic preparedness, specifically for families. A survival situation presents unique challenges for families. The intent of this group is to look at survivalism from the perspective of families with children. Why use the term 'survivalism'? Isn't that for fringe weirdos? Not exclusively, no... Anyone can figure out how to survive for 3 days, or a week. However, there are many disasters, besides Armageddon, that could impact us fo …

The purpose of this group is to provide a place where people can work hard helping themselves and others get better with job seeking skills. My vision is that a typical meeting starts with us each giving a 2-3 minute 'elevator' speech and then discussing what did or did not work for them that week. We c …
