The online prepper community is, like the rest of the Internet, the target of scammers & predators. From time to time the admins here are made aware of people posting on the site who are targeting preppers in the hope of selling them places in communities that don’t exist or real estate deals that are nothing more than scams. (There are also sexual predators known to troll online forums – so please, take all care in information you divulge & in agreeing to “meets”)
We do our best to investigate the warnings, taking the offending posts offline while we do. BUT, it’s not easy trying to get the facts from authorities re: ongoing investigations – or even getting them to confirm an investigation is in progress. Some of these ‘warnings’ talk about ‘a friend of a friend’ or ‘someone I know’ with little or no detail – making getting to the facts & the ability to verify any claims of wrongdoing by the poster, almost impossible.
So do yourself a favor – before parting with your hard earned money – check out posters before parting with any money. Ask to talk with others who are happy investors/members, ask to visit these places they are selling – do your homework! The Internet is NOT a safe place & scammers prey on those who are naive, desperate & afraid. Don’t be a victim.
We continue to try & keep this site as safe as we can, but predators will always find new ways to try to part you from your money!

Volusia County, Florida
The Volusia County Prepping Group has been meeting monthly since 2011. We’re a preparedness education group – NOT a “survival group” or “mutual assistance group” or militia or anything like that. If you’re interested in learning and meeting like-minded folks, please check out our web site and join us at a meeting. There are no dues – we pass the jar for donations to rent the building for our meetings. If nothing else, you’ll probably find some good information on our web site.

Hello everyone, I am a 28-year-old female living in Pennsylvania looking for a group to join. Someone with like-minded people that don’t put people down but build each other up. We are in this to thrive not be divided by greed and or jealousy.
There is a lot for me to learn I am still new but I am taking up the trade of tanning and butchering I also know how to sew so I’m going to be working on making products from the tandem skins.
If anyone has a group that is willing to except another person and help them learn or you wish to start a group or community feel free to emailed me at didakingston @ yahoo dot com

Hello everyone my name is Dida
I am a newly surfaced proper I have always known the world was going to go to shit and have always wanted to prepare for it but I never knew prepping was such a thing until I discovered it on TV and then online. Right now I am doing it by myself and slowly because my family doesn’t want anything to do with it they feel it is childish and a waste of money and/or time.
So what I am looking for is I would like to find like-minded people to mentor me and guide me in this rough world. Eventually I would like to create a community in which we all support each other and thrive and survive in the world to come.
My skills are as followed
-I can fish and build a tent and fire from scratch
– I am good at first aid hopefully learning how to do sutures soon
– becoming better at identifying plants and using them medically.
I was in a prepper group a while ago but I had left due to the fact that a lot of the people there we’re putting others down for the lack of knowledge and kind of making them feel stupid. As well as making fun of me because of an illness I have which is cancer so that set me off the deep end and I left without questions asked. I want to find someone or people that don’t judge others for illnesses they have how they look or what they do or don’t know we are all in this together when shit hits the fan and we only to survive and learn together so that’s the kind of people I wish to be around
If you think you can help me in any way feel free to email me at didakingston @ yahoo dot com hope to talk to you soon

Southwestern Oregon Preppers (SWOP) will be holding a meeting at Noon on Saturday, October 28, 2017 at the Bandon Library, Sprague Room, 1204 11th St SW, Bandon, OR 97411.
The main topic is “Earthquakes: Myths and Misconceptions”. October is the month for the Great Oregon Shakeout. The time to prepare for a possible earthquake and tsunami is NOW. It is not a matter of if – it is a matter of when.
SWOP meetings always start with a question and answer period before the main topic so all in attendance get a chance to participate.
This is a free public meeting to get to know fellow local preppers in southwestern Oregon counties and to exchange information and ideas. It is important for individuals to understand that they will be “on their own” in the event of a disaster and not to depend on receiving outside help.
Join Southwestern Oregon Preppers on Facebook and/or meetup.com

I live in the OKC metro area and have been trying for years to connect with other preppers. My husband and I are particularly interested in formalizing our group and networking with other groups. A friend told me about this site. We are prep skill instructors for our new business, Stone Haven LLC. We also just published a book on starting and maintaining a prep group, which we have dubbed a Survival Alliance – available on Amazon. It’s called Survival Alliances and we are on FB under the same name. We are committed to helping folks whether they are just getting started or ready to start an alliance. We truly believe these groups will be places of safety for those who are properly prepared. Message me here or on FB if I can help.

Hello,
My name is Thomas and I have a unique prepper group in Houston, Texas.
A little info on our group, our area our members are in is about a 600sq mile area and we also offer search and rescue services to those members. We have recently opted to allow people to join that don’t live near Houston but wish to be part of our Emergency Deployment Team,”EDT” at the direction of the staff of Gulf Coast Preppers. We are also looking for “EDT” members that own water craft equipment boats jetski to conduct water rescues, or k9 units for missing person trapped in building debris. Each week on Thursday we have a meeting discussing all things emergency preparedness and I will host it if someone isn’t doing so themself. The meeting is held on a 2 way radio application, you must be part of our Facebook page to get access, but we welcome all to join.

Mom, Grandma, and Granddaughter are looking for a prepper group in or around Guthrie, OK. We are new to all of this, having decided that enough was enough and we should probably have some kind of action plan to go on should SHTF. Not quite sure where to start, but we have decided our first priorities are to find a group (as we can’t exactly “Red Dawn” it, as my mother put it), and we need to start stocking up on food and water for what may be the inevitable.
I’m not quite sure what I could advertise as a “skill set” for us. My mother has worked reconning cars for years and is quite handy with most common car issues? I’m a medical biller with minimal actual surgical experience. I guess my post-apocalyptic life skill would be crocheting. Gotta have them blankets, scarfs, hats, stuffed animals etc lol. Any and all help/tips/guidance would be much appreciated. I see the links on the left hand side of the site for guides and blogs, etc, and will be looking more into them very shortly. Must ask that any and all contact (for the time being) be solely online as privacy is precious these days, as is security and safety. Thank you so much to you who is reading this, drop a message if you can, and have a happy day.
Sep 292017
Anyone near us in a prepper group? We have a lot of time on our hands (retired) and want to step up our preps again. We’re interested in having contacts we can trust during a SHTF scenario. We hope we never need it, but it would be great to feel we had help during such a time.
Thanks for reading this. Hope we can meet up.
Sep 272017
I have been Prepping for over 20 years, and have heard many scenario’s about what people think will be a safe haven if SHTF. So let me start by telling you this, To survive SHTF your biggest concern should be your family, neighbors, transients, and passer byes. The location you choose should not be in the mountains or 20 miles from the nearest hospital of law enforcement agency.
Now let me explain! If your intent is to fight the government and you think you can fend off an attack from a 10 man assault team of trained and battle ready soldiers! Think again. If you have to face a 10 man assault team, its going to be a bad day for everyone. Your team should be ready to fight only when protecting your family, friends, and your property and food supply. Now saying this the City is no place to be either. If you are in a big city when SHTF, your chances are drastically reduced. What is more secure than a hardened structure built by the government to house and secure people? You got it, I local Jail or Prison that can keep everybody safe when SHTF. If the government is after you, you can’t hide long. So in my opinion a secure Facility in a rural town with low population is the best place to defend your group. and you remain close enough for help and to others to set up bartering for supplies needed.
We have the perfect place to take a last stand. We are looking for individuals that want to join a group that are thinking outside of the box. I get a kick out of people that think they will survive in the woods and hunt their own food. There is a reason the hunter gatherers didn’t survive in the past. Always keep in mind that you will not be the only person in the woods that think the same way you do! Knowing that the hunter became the hunted is not a good feeling when you are trying to get sleep. Feel free to respond and we can talk more about our facility, lets see if we make a good match in prepping for the future. Thanks Tom

Hi All!
We are blessed to live on our North East Texas 50+ acre homestead full-time, to spend every day molding and shaping it’s potential into reality. We are long time preppers, and as a family, we have decided that we would like to offer the opportunity for certain folks to become a part of our community.
We have discussed a few potential options for folks (BOL versus full-time community), and welcome discussion as everyone is at a different place in their life. In addition, we offer the opportunity to build camaraderie, to develop and enhance our sustainability skill-set…to become a community BEFORE an event. This won’t be for everyone – It will require background checks, initial public meetings, time and financial commitments, (not those 10k buy-in things, but if you want to put a building here, etc.)
Mister is a former Marine, law enforcement officer and firearms instructor with 25+yrs of experience. Missus is an IT Professional by day, and homestead supermom by night. College freshman and fifth grader are cheerful farm hands. Extended family includes Army Ranger and Trauma Nurse. Dogs, barn kitty, chickens, ducks…there are always animals! We are a typical Christian family (not a militia) that loves to laugh, hike, watch movies, etc. We work very hard, and we try to play just as hard! We also work to ensure our family and our farm are prepared for any eventuality. You can email us via info [at] txexitstrategy [dot] com or visit that site for more info.

Dear Friends,
There is a “Preppers Paradise” that is up for sale around the corner from me.
I’m not into this for a dime, and don’t know the seller. The only reason I put this out is that I’d rather some good Prepper Folks buy it, instead of some drunken idiot from Chicago.
I have been to this property – it is a great deal. Very, very secluded. This is not for “Prepper Wannabes”. The people who buy this would have to have their act together. Yes……we do actually have Winter up here. If you want warm weather year round, then head down South, and join the crowds (key word: crowds!). One thing I always tell folks – in tough times, you’re number one advantage up here is LOW POPULATION DENSITY. Sorry, but the overwhelming majority of humans are idiots, and nor prepared for their next bowel movement. If 9/10 people are clueless, doesn’t it make sense to be in an area where there are many fewer people? Check this place out: http://tinyurl.com/preppermichigan
We have a small farm nearby. Would love to have some of you fine folks as neighbors. God Bless!

With all the issues with North Korea lately and other issues such as tornadoes, floods etc. starting to take prepping more seriouslly and would like to connect with others.
Right now just looking to meet other like minded people and learn strategies etc. but maybe eventually join a group. 30 y.o. male with a family. Can offer skills in the architectural / construction field including help with building bunkers, security etc. No criminal background, college educated, but don’t hold it against anyone who is not. Not religious but not irresponsible either. Thanks.

While I don’t have the greatest knowledge of how to go about being self-sufficient and prepared, I do have a house on 24 beautiful acres, and I’m learning more all of the time. I moved here by myself with a desire to start a more self-sufficient, healthy, and generous lifestyle. I am a 37-year-old, Christian male with a full-time job. I work from home here, and my place is between Bolivar and Buffalo. If there are others who are looking to be more self-sufficient and who are interested in joining me in developing that type of lifestyle here, let me know!

I’m looking to find other preppers or suvivalists in Custer County area.
Sep 152017
We (family of 4 myself36/wife35/son13/son6) are located in Maine. We live on private 50 acres on a long dead end dirt road. I believe that my property would be very defensible in SHTF with the right people. There’s more about the defensible aspects of our property that I do not want to say here.
We are currently doing many advanced preps that i will not go into. We have a field started for garden/pasture approx 8 acres. We have a large barn. Starting to raise meat rabbits and chickens, goats and ducks. We are also doing other medium scale things to our property to help with agricultural production and self sufficiency. I think that it is important to be well rounded in my preps by having quality tactical gear, arms, ammo, ect. and important items to be able to charge batteries and other misc things like doing laundry, along with stocking up on other important items like food, canning supplies, tools for cutting fire wood ect. But all in all none of it will amount to anything if I do not have two things in place… one being our ability to grow, raise, and preserve our own food and the other defending what we have at SHTF.
Currently we plan to have two other families that plan to join us when everything falls apart. We are in need of someone with real tactical combat experience. (ie real Military experience) I’m not talking about someone who has been through boot camp and never deployed. I am hoping to find an experienced military man (with family?) that can train with us regularly before shtf and also help plan for strategic defenses of the property. Also a medic would always be needed. Aside from that I honestly think that some other local friends that i know that are prepping would be just fine if we needed more bodies. All in all we are very well rounded. We make our own soap. Can fix vehicles, tinker, do carpentry, farm, ect. I plan to have 4+/- families at our retreat after shtf.
Some basic requirements I would have would be regular biweekly/monthly training meetings, maintaining a years+ supply of food, byo AR-15 with ammo. Always would welcome help ‘on the farm’ if you can make the time. If qualified and relocating i would be willing to rent our other house out to you. We are not looking for any free loaders before or after shtf. Everyone must carry there own weight after shtf and before… well if we don’t work we don’t eat. I would assume you would have or find a normal job to support yourself unless you have a pension.
Our family and one of the othes are genuine bible believing born again christians. Although i myself am very much against the tide of modern day christianity and have only recently tried to start to go to church. I have been a believer for 17 years and have a strong faith in Jesus and a very fluent bible knowledge. I do not state that to segregate. Well, I’ve probably said too much about my plans, but i am hopeful that it will help bring forth some people who have some serious skill to join us.
Oh, if you already live in Maine and want to plan to bug out with us (instead of move close by) that could work too as long as you still would hold regular meeting/training schedule. Hopefully if nothing else this leads to a life long friendship.

Our medic has to move out of state and we need to replace that critical position. We already have a medical team of doctors and nurses but they don’t go out on patrol with the tactical team and can’s always address the first critical 30 minutes. For that we need someone who can also fight to go out with us. A combat experienced medic would be perfect but a civilian paramedic would definitely be considered.
In return you and your family will be part of an established group with an excellent retreat site. You’ll have to meet our minimum requirements but you’re not likely to find a better group or retreat for yourself or your family. We’re located in the northern portion of the lower peninsula of Michigan in a very rural area not near any freeways or cities within a national forest.

Hi, I am in the North Bay area, just north of San Francisco, hoping to join a group soon for me and my dog. I’m a 30 year old female, have lots to offer, have been in survival situations in the snow, I am a car prepper, meaning I could survive out of my car for a long time if need be, but feel that it is beginning to be time to find a group and an actual location. Please let me know if anyone established or starting is looking for new members in California or I’m open to Nevada as well, because the masses will head to the desert lastly after slowly leaving cities and venturing outward in search of food and water.

We would like to meet other preppers in the NE MO area. The biggest nearby town is Hannibal MO. Quincy area folks are also very welcome.

Our main skill sets are: We are good shots and practice fairly often, animal training, sewing, solar cooking, navigation, weather forecasting, some gardening, some medical, and various other things that we have dabbled in. Always adding to our skill sets.
Any takers? PM me!

We are a diverse, close knit mutual assistance group that is located 30 miles east of Indianapolis. We are looking to recruit a few quality persons. Medical, law enforcement, or prior military service is desirable but not necessary. We are active and train one weekend per month. We are non political and etremely loyal to each other and our family’s. Our next training exercise will be conducted in The Hoosier National Forest on September 16/17. If you are content to simply talk about training or want to be part of a chat group, we probably aren’t what you’re looking for. Experience is not required. You must be able to pass a backgound check.

We are a little Sanctuary in the foothills of Mt. St. Helens east of Kelso, WA. House at 300′ elevation, 5 forested acres (alder, maple, cedar, fir, blackberries), directly adjacent to millions of acres of uninhabited forest land where we can freely roam (deer, elk, wild turkeys, coyotes, cougar?) We are wilderness-based, not city, town, or farm-based.
We plan to keep the Team small for many reasons, including that our fallout shelter only holds 6. We are prepared for nuclear war, disease plague (by self-isolation), climate disruption (although our weakness is forest fire), and general financial/commercial/political collapse (by self-sufficiency). We are also in fairly good shape for most Black Swans (earthquake, etc.) The Sanctuary is prepared to make the transition to complete and permanent self-sufficiency if necessary (gardening, hunting, fishing, herbal medicine).
Current members include a mental-health therapist, a mechanical engineer, a medical pathology assistant, and a plant nursery worker. We have many other skills among us.
In new people, we are more interested in maturity and good values than any certain skills, but you must be fairly well educated, open to learning, and willing to teach what you know. Emotional stability, intelligence, patience, respect, cooperation, and intuition are highly valued. We are NOT interested in control freaks, politicians, chatter boxes, or the judgmental, impulsive, lazy, or defensive.
Excellent health and mobility, and strong immune systems, are necessary. No drug dependencies (including recreational), significant food allergies, or claustrophobia. Politics and religion must be kept strictly personal. No costs (other than your own gear), but you must have reliable transportation.
This Sanctuary is not a residential situation for most members during normal times, but a retreat location where we gather about 6 weekends a year to explore, work, learn, and play. We also stay ready to dash to the Sanctuary if/when “something” happens. We have 2 openings, suitable for individuals, a couple, or parent and youth. We only consider youth who are capable of completely grown-up behavior whenever it is needed (minimum age of about 8), and we would look at the youth’s qualities and motivations, just as we would with an adult.
The Sanctuary is strictly private, not associated with any government, business, or religion, and we will keep all communications confidential: zimindrixli [at] yahoo [dot] com.

Hi All!
We are blessed to live on our North East Texas 50+ acre homestead full-time, to spend every day molding and shaping it’s potential into reality. We are long time preppers, and as a family, we have decided that we would like to offer the opportunity for certain folks to become a part of our community.
We have discussed a few potential options for folks (BOL versus full-time community), and welcome discussion as everyone is at a different place in their life. In addition, we offer the opportunity to build camaraderie, to develop and enhance our sustainability skill-set…to become a community BEFORE an event. This won’t be for everyone – It will require background checks, initial public meetings, time and financial commitments, (not those 10k buy-in things, but if you want to put a building here, etc.)
Mister is a former Marine, law enforcement officer and firearms instructor with 25+yrs of experience. Missus is an IT Professional by day, and homestead supermom by night. College freshman and fifth grader are cheerful farm hands. Extended family includes Army Ranger and Trauma Nurse. Dogs, barn kitty, chickens, ducks…there are always animals! We are a typical Christian family (not a militia) that loves to laugh, hike, watch movies, etc. We work very hard, and we try to play just as hard! We also work to ensure our family and our farm are prepared for any eventuality. You can email us via info [at] txexitstrategy [dot] com or visit that site for more info.

It took a lot of discussion to decide to do this, but we are open to accepting new members in the North Georgia area, specifically in the Gainesville area. We are not a vocal group, as is we are as low key as possible, and we expect any new members to follow that rule. Any new member will be on a probationary basis until voted in as a full member.
If you are interested, please PM me

Any preppers in MN? I’m new to prepping but I do know strength in numbers and I like getting ideas from others about best locations to go in MN, supplies and more. 🙂
