Resources and Commentary on Prepping in Suburbia
After a year or so of the site being down, we’re slowly relaunching it with all the old content, and writing new content. It’s been well over a year since I’ve done any prepping, and recently started again. Updates over the last 18 months are, Ms. Prepper is now Mrs. Prepper, and there’s the addition of Baby Prepper, too… I feel like it’s all new again, and I’m learning from scratch…
CCW Class with GAPPNJ and Cameron Green
I arrived early to the location where GAPP was holding the Utah and Florida CCW course, or at least I thought I was going to be early. It was 30 minutes before the class was to begin, and there were already a half dozen people waiting outside the front door to gain…

Tune into Doctor Prepper Radio Monday, April 4th
Well, looks like I will be on Doctor Prepper Radio again Monday evening, April 4th. Tune in and listen to Doctor Prepper and I talk about suburban and urban prepping. There’s not going to be an agenda or format, I think, but more just bantering about our thoughts…
Thinking About Medicine and First Aid During a SHTF Event
Recently I have been giving some thought to First Aid and Medicine in the wake of the three very bad earthquakes our planet has recently seen in the past 14 or 15 months. I have been thinking about my first aid kit, is it adequate, what I know and do not know about…
Green Academy of Personal Protection, April 10th CCW Class, Phillipsburg, NJ
Just an FYI, I was chatting with Cam over at www.gappnj.com the other day, and he mentioned there is room left in the April 10th Non-Resident Utah and Florida CCW class that will be held at the Phillipsburg Pistol Club, Phillipsburg, NJ from 8:30 a.m. — 6:00 p.m.….
