HOMESTEADING & PREPAREDNESS

If you’re like us, you love learning about homesteading and preparedness. It’s fascinating to think about how we would all survive in the event of a major disaster. And while some people might scoff at the idea of being prepared for the worst, we believe that it’s always better to be safe than sorry. After all, you never know when catastrophe might strike.

So whether you’re a seasoned prepper or just getting started on your journey, we’re here to bring you the information and stories that you love. From tips on how to build the perfect underground shelter to tales of survival during severe weather events, we’ve got everything you need to stay informed and safe. So, buckle up and get ready for a wild ride… Homesteading & Preparedness is coming your way!

At Prepper Daves we are always working hard on bringing you the latest Free Newsletter packed with information about homesteading and preparedness as well as hunting, fishing, trapping, and shooting. We will also send you a Free Copy of our Sunday Paper that covers wide range subjects such current events, politics, policy, markets, defense, energy, science, investigations, education, and history.
