I am an experienced Prepper that has established two separate retreat situations. I have recently developed a relationship where my girlfriend, her father and her adult children exceed the carrying capacity of my current retreat partnership so I am looking to form a new partnership with an individual/family/group that has or is looking to establish an agriculturally self-sufficient remote farm that could benefit from intelligent, honest, industrious, Christian partners who are well-prepared with ample provisions, skills and training to be an asset to any group in a grid down economic collapse.
Our Group:
Adults: 7 – Small Business Owner/ Entrepreneur(41), Medical Doctor(70), PhD Psychologist (42), Grandmother (71), Mom (44), Male College Student (21), Female College Student 18
Children: Two Boys 9 & 7
Preps: 10+ month supply of storable food (Dehyrated, Freeze Dried, and Bulk Grains in Superpails), Water Filtration, non-hybrid seeds, defensive firearms, spare parts, ammunition, camping gear, canning jars, clothing, medical supplies, 150 cc 75mpg scooter, books, gold & silver in small denominations of recognizable hallmarks, etc. 24 ft fifth wheel camping trailer
Concerns: Grid-down economic collapse due to hyper-inflation/ collapse of the actuarially unstable $USD and/or the current global debt-based financial system
OR : Long great depression that leads to increased crime and social unrest in urban areas.
Ideal Situation: Relatively hidden agriculturally self-sufficient remote farm at least one tank of gas away from Washington DC in Central Virginia (We are currently located in NoVa and Washington DC and would bug-out in the case of a collapse.
Potential Retreat: We know of a potential retreat property outside of Roanoke. Single family home that could support our group and another couple with 1-2 children. The property is on a private road at the end of another private road in a mostly agriculturally self-sufficient community. We can’t afford the property ourselves at this time but could partner with the right couple looking to create a retreat situation from scratch.
