How To Prepare For Disasters Like A Homesteader

Said it before and I'll say it again. This girl is a gem. The husband has a keeper.

[@TheSmokyMountainFlowerFarmer]

Middle aged white man here. I have seen a lot of videos pop up in my feed about this subject over the years and honestly….when I saw you made a video about it, my trust factor kicked in and immediately clicked because I knew it was going to be helpful, informative and calm. Not a ridiculous flame thrower kind of video. If you know what I mean? THANK YOU! 💚

[@americansfirst1095]

I hear ya! 😉

[@samburton2978]

I love hearing someone young saying these things. I was 51 before I did. Now I'm 68, and I just sound like a grumpy old man. Thank you very much!!

[@JayMills-z3f]

A generator for those of us on wells and enough fuel to run it when necessary. Cash is also something people don't think about. When the power is out, the Internet is out and many stores can't run credit/debit and many won't take a check unless it's local. Chainsaws, bar oil and fuel. There's a huge list, but awesome message and great job Kim! A point is to have a plan, and if you don't know how to plan for a catastrophe or "social inconvenience", learn how to. Thanks and keep 'em coming!

[@thegr8stm8]

Wise words of wisdom! Those on your channel are all part of the Choir 😊😉😉🍻

[@dcsblessedbees]

I am so glad I grew up on a Family Farm, great info. Blessed Days...

[@taylorprowell2167]

Other than food, I keep bees wax candles, we have oil lamps, I keep a gallon or 2 of lantern oil, batteries, fuel, a gas range and we can also cook on our fire pit, canning lids if we need to start canning meat from the freezer, the big 5 gallon jugs of water.... and ammunition

[@leonwills8846]

I love your pets you are such a great cook take good care stay blessed stay beautiful 🌅🤩🌺💯😁🌄

[@ozhalljr]

I'll be happy to try to improve this audio, if you like.

[@bugoutbrad8395]

No chips. No pop. aaaaaaaaaaaa! Great video. Thank you. Cheers 🍻

[@Joshua.zero29]

1:00 😂😂😂 Audio wasn't bad at all. Also, this episode is full of incredible information and advice! This is my second year of growing foods and had plenty of goods canned to last for months. That doesn't include the 3 years of long term foods I have stored. So while people freaked out about the port protests and bought everything they could get their hands on, I had no need to shop. That brought a peace of mind that few felt. 9:50 When people realize this, they'll stop paying attention to ads, absurd amounts of consumerism and aim for a credit score of zero. ❤ Have a great day!

[@angietaylor5311]

Great chat and wonderful advice for us all ♥️

Hello Kim, You are very tuned in, maybe clairvoyant and smart as well. Your beautiful hair may be an antenna to world events! You see through the events that are transpiring but not necessarily next door to everybody and so no one worries about them, but should. Being prepared means a person doesn't have to say "I wish I did something" before it all happened and now feels the despair that this lack of action allows. And, you know what Kim, if it doesn't happen then thank Providence and carry on. The world is completely upside down. The world is at the bursting point of tragic events. Even people living in inner city apartments can do a little to store up, even if it is only for a little while, to secure their survival. Your life Kim is no walk in the park. I, as a child, lived on a dairy farm with some horses, 200 Holstein and 100 Jersey cows plus chickens, geese, turkeys, a few pigs and even a handful of peacocks as well as rows of corn, a selection of fruit trees and rows of garden vegetables and fruits of all kinds and I tell you I was busy even as a child every day. The only worries were for a great supply of electric power, water, hay, molasses and grains for the animals. This type of life is BIGGER than BIG in things to do and most people, I am sorry, could NOT pull it off. If they were forced maybe they could. Being born into is the best way. Also, behind the scenes on many days is the veterinarian for the animals which I remember were around a lot! Now that I think about it again it ALL seems like way too much to do. Guess what? it was. So my hats off to you Kim and I'm not even wearing one and for reminding people that world events are teetering on disaster and to be prepared even if disaster will be averted! It never hurts to be prepared. Being prepared can only mean you have supplies and will be warm and can protect your self. There is no downside!

[@truthbetold2611]

You're right about the hair and antenna. I visit this channel for beautiful contents and her amazing goldy locks : )

[@KathKeel]

New subscriber here! I’m glad I found your channel, I live in rural Indiana with four kids, husband and dogs.🌻

[@alexandralaske9415]

I have a manual grain mill, I have a wood-fired stove, I have a well and a spring in the forest. That's all that matters if there is no electricity. And I even have a pottery kiln that uses wood

[@skydemon-u6i]

if your spring has a waterfall or you can make a water fall from it, use a dc motor and make a hydro generator, there now you have electricity.

[@DwayneShaw1]

- I bought a bidet unit for my toilet - on sale for under $30 on Amazon, took about 5 min to install and well worth it. - I bought rechargeable batteries so I don't have to stockpile a lot of disposable ones - If you run out of yeast for bread, make a poolish. Mix 1/2 cup of flour with a 1/2 cup of water and leave it uncovered on your counter for 2-3 days. It will draw yeast (and other ambient bacteria that can impart flavor) from the air -- I don't even bother with maintaining a sourdough starter anymore, but I will generally use a poolish even when I use store bought yeast too. - A generator, or some solar panels (or a wind turbine) and a few batteries, would be a great option if you can budget for it

[@WilliamCooper-l6f]

I use bibbed overalls to always have correct fitting clothes.

[@kirstenleah84]

Books!! Recipes, survival, medicine, etc.. if power goes out and you don't have the ability to Google something, having it on paper is important.

[@markflick1641]

Great video Kim , keep smiling 😁

[@martyhenschel7145]

Wow, things must really be slowing down; four videos in one week. Thank you.

[@johnchristopherlatvenas-sk2qx]

Your amazing an all around survivalist I love 💕 your videos sooo informative

[@skydemon-u6i]

In terms of batteries I recommend lead acid batteries, I lived in a third world country and this was the main battery our family used when we had blackouts, or our grid was cut, also stack up on led lights. I would also recommend getting a hand crank generator that has a flash light or that can be used to power 5v appliances.

[@ballymullinfarm]

You are 100% right about everything but on what you said about people being able to afford it. We get told so much from people “I wish I could do that” but “I don’t have the time” or “I don’t have the money”. You do!!! You just don’t have the will, the desire or are just a lil’ lazy.

[@honeytrailfarm]

[@flatworm00]

You are one of a kind!!! Your husband did really good, picking you!

[@carlstonhatcher1012]

Good morning Kim at Honey farms I enjoy your videos

Aww Mo 😂❤ I agree with those old shirts/socks, coffee filters😂 better than a corn husk cob

Bar soap, laundry detergent, toilet paper, rubbing alcohol, bandaids, paper towels, canned goods etc.

[@kimcunningham2107]

A REALLY important message! Thank you, Kim. ❤️

[@Texes7777]

You are so smart. People can’t and are just oblivious I really hope take your efforts to heart. I live in a super wealthy area the smallest land is 3 acres in Texas none of my neighbors have rigged up for a disaster I mean they all have a back up home generator, ponds and land but it’s all for a park setting and looks. It’s kinda good selling goods here I have a niche I can only supply so much though. I tell them like you just described but thinking I’m a farmer/rancher and they are big business people look at me like would I listen to you I have so much nicer of a home… mine is paid off everything is paid off they have million dollar loans. I digress Any good job your a good human….

[@Derekmartin20]

So much people can do for themselves. Good stuff 👍

[@beeamerica5024]

You need to watch a movie called blazing saddles since you like beans so much 😁 beans bullets and Band-Aids 😁

[@Subdrvr-r7c]

During the plandemic and just before I started buying pint and quart Mason/Kerr jars. I got a thousand of each. Working on half gallon and gallon now. 100 of each. As well I now have 30 pieces of Lodge cast iron from the outlet store. And too, 5 Potjie kettles. I have purchased some 40 cookbooks ranging from the late 1700’s right to present.

[@vaughnutube327]

Nice ... thanks for sharing your insights.

[@STOLGUITARS]

Very informative TY ! love all your vids !!

[@rustynails5462]

going two days without power was a chore but mainly just annoying. My deep freezer of meat survived because I never opened it. It was on the edge of thawing but that was the first thing I checked when the lights came on. THE most helpful non-food items were the liquid parrafin "100-hour" emergency candles. Get the Sterno ones with the wind guard and not the wedding-planner decorative votives 😉. These have a tiny flame but you can safely leave them burning 24/7 which is great in the dark areas of the house like a BATHROOM. Also, a slight breeze will etinguish (hence the guard) or if they get tipped they'll go out and not spill.

[@RDAnys]

I escaped to Mexico from the US 15 years ago when I foresaw things were going to collapse and I lived residentially and couldn't follow the path you're recommending, which is totally correct. Now I wish I had followed that path when I moved here, but I didn't and now I regret it because once again I'm not prepared for what is coming.

[@PJJoys]

You’ll be right. You can grow lots of food even on a balcony. Don’t be afraid. Fear is not a good companion. Stay positive

[@RDAnys]

@@PJJoys That's exactly what I started doing a few months ago. I have two terraces but neither get full sun so I'm having limited success.

[@iansmith7369]

Living on the coast of Texas. I would add some gasoline for chainsaws, for falling trees! Due to a hurricane, tornadoes or even both! You may have said something about fuel, but I did not hear it if you did! Fuel in your vehicles or vehicle, in case you have to evacuate the area! I've been through quite a few storms! You are a treasure to watch young lady! Y'all stay safe!

We don't wait till disaster come to start preparing. Do it now. A can here, a bag there. Preparedness is a lifestyle, not an event.

Hey Kim from editing

[@joanneth4919]

Kim, you do have a say in the Presidential Election. You vote. You vote for the person you agree with on matters. You vote to have the government hear your voice. It is the most important thing you can do as an American. Okay, I'm done with my lecture on Civics. I love the processes you have for preserving your bounty from farming. Have you looked at freeze-drying the food you have produced on your farm. When you procure your meats, do you keep the offal from the animals. The offal is excellent food for Hank, and Moe and all the cats.

[@honeytrailfarm]

I am voting!! Also, I wish I could afford a freeze dryer, maybe in the future!

[@joanneth4919]

@honeytrailfarm there are a few other homesteaders that got HarvestRight freezers. They, in turn, did commercials in their videos. So they get like a five tray freeze dryer. You need to see what manufacturers, seed suppliers, you got your grain mill, we aa your viewers should drop hints on all the KZbinrs we watch in the comment sections. In other words, direct people of like mind to you channel. The more the merrier.

[@ruthinater4322]

I saw Justin Rhodes vids 😢 so heartbreaking. Been watching them for years and it's crazy how quickly it can all go. But so glad his house made it. Could have been worse. He was in the worst part from what I gather

You people in America are better off compared to those in the Global South, where even minor supply chain disruptions can lead to chaos. I live in Sri Lanka, and since we rely entirely on imported fuel, the escalation of conflicts in the Middle East directly impacts our economy. Additionally, many people here earn so little that they can’t afford to stock up on essential items for emergencies. Most of their income goes toward food.
