Hello, I am in Livingston TX. Just getting started with prepping on a budget. Born in 61. Not looking to be part of the insurrection, but I intend to be here after. Firepower is not my problem. Just getting started. I have a little food, water plan, etc. Divorced with adult kids. looking for like minded individuals. Not looking for supplies, looking for a network/community. Still Christian, but lost long ago. Conservative. Sound like a fit?
Looking to start group.
Existing Site in SouthEastern Oklahoma seeking individual, couple or very small group
What I’m all about:
I’m a male in my mid-40’s living off-grid in much the same fashion I would if TSHTF. If the end of the world occurred tomorrow, I wouldn’t know about it until I realized planes weren’t flying overhead anymore. I’ve been doing this in earnest now for about a decade, though my scheming and plotting started in the late 90’s.
I don’t really anticipate a calamity that can be marked and commemorated on some future calendar, instead I feel the continued decay of ethics, morality and dependencies/ entitlements have already put us square in the definition of living post-apocalypse. And all it seems likely to do from here is continue to degrade. I am not a ‘gun nut’ praying for something terrible to happen so I can live out my fantasies based on being ‘done wrong’ by the world. Unfortunately, too many of our ranks seem to lean that direction.
My life is without dependency on the outside world, economy, medical care, etc… I train pack/ draft animals, raise food(though not as much or as well as I could), devise methods to contend with my needs based on what’s onhand, etc…
I’m on a rather small piece of property(6 acres) adjacent to a river, lots of ‘feral’ land and few neighbors. It’s very rural, off the beaten track, but not so far from ‘town’ or resources to have to worry about having enough gas to go get gas. That said… I might make a trip to town 6 times a year.
It’s the frontier out here… riff-raff, cowboys and indians, other assorted ‘wild’ inhabitants… the weather is equally wild and so are the innumerable quantities of wildlife that we share the region with. I wouldn’t trade this spot for the world… I was very lucky to have found it and appreciated it’s potential so many years ago.
What I’m looking for:
I took all this on by myself and understand how difficult it is to even conceive of it as an individual. Ideally, I’d like to find a person or couple or even a very small group that was looking for an optimal location as I was when I located this one(I am not from here, I sought it out based on a long list of criteria). Learn what it’s all about and what you’re made of, and put yourself or yourselves in a secure position come what may. Making space for a camper, yurt or other temporary accommodations, if needed, would not be a huge ordeal.
My personal experience has lent me the opinion that large groups are too inherently flawed… and too prone to failure- Too many heads to bang together and it always seems money is the root of the greatest number of issues.
I’m not concerned about ‘your skill set’ or what you might bring to the table. In my opinion, most of us under-estimate some and over-estimate even more of our own abilities, needs, etc… without having them put to the test. Having ‘mad canning skillz’ while Walmart’s still open is one thing. Figuring out how to preserve food without an infinite supply of lids and rings is entirely another.
It doesn’t matter how much money you have or how much ‘stuff’ you’ve acquired. Everything you ‘need’ is in your head and heart. That said- you would need to be able to provide for yourself or do what’s necessary(like working, hah) at least long enough to get your head around things.
I’m not interested in ‘making money’ off anyone. It would be essential that you help around here, and of course you would be helped as well. But I can’t ‘take care’ of anyone. You’ll have to be resolved to take care of yourself or yourselves.
Criminal records, drug use(including pot) and alcoholism cannot be tolerated- occasional drinking doesn’t bother me, neither does smoking as long as you can provide your own tobacco or learn to grow it.
If you’re interested(and still reading)… feel free to contact me at:
sustainabill at gee male dart calm
or contact me here.
Let’s set up some dialogue and see if we can find a mutually beneficial situation.
Good luck out there.
Retired couple seeking to join a group in San Antonio. Just getting into prepping. Give me a holler.
Hello my name is Lee (aka surplusprepper) been prepping since 1995, but after several family mishaps, I am back in Texas starting over prepping. I am trying to find prepper groups in the Montgomery County area of Texas and try to connect different groups to have connections for when SHTF we can all work in unison to help each other when needed.
I am a US Army Veteran(medical and communications), Volunteer Fire Fighter/Instructor, love the outdoors(fishing and hunting), traveling and cooking.
Hello,
We are new to prepping and are seeking a Christian community to join. We have an RV and heirloom seeds and a few other things we have been gathering. Any real believers out there willing to consider some hard working, Jesus loving newbies?
We are a small group between San Antonio and Corpus. We are looking to expand our MAG. We have 60 acres with a small lake stocked with fish, horses, cows, deer, turkey, quail, hogs, and dove. We have a bunker project going right now. We are looking for members with skills, their own gear (or trying to acquire). We would like to meet at least once every 3 weeks for training and cookout. We have a shooting range on the ranch (Pistol and rifle up to 400 yards). Due to Opsec we will have to meet in San Antonio or Corpus to start the courting process and see if you will fit in the group. I’m an engineer that welds, electrical, plumbing, ex-Military (Dessert Storm), etc. The wife is a LVN and helps with all the Preps. We have 2 small children that are just getting acclimated to the life when they are not on their tablets going brain dead. Reply here and further communication will follow outside of this site.
Hello, we have a small group located in North Texas (Montague and Cook County area) and we are looking to expand by adding one or two additional families. We have a secured bugout location and we meet once a month (sometimes more) in order to improve the location and develop strategies, tactics and plans. We will ask for a public face to face meeting/interview with those that are interested so that we can all find out about each other. Quality of character in additional to skill set, potential resources and willingness to contribute to the overall welfare of the group, will be the main qualifiers when considering possible additions to our group. We are looking for open minded serious preppers who are eager to contribute to the group and help us to improve our readiness level and expand our capabilities.
Hello, I am a prepper located in Victoria county in Tx and I’m intrested in joining a small group to get together with, I am still fairly new to the area and would like to meet up with like minded folks. I am a licensed EMT-B working for a private security firm doing security and Industrial EMS, in addition to my medical training I have formal firearms training, experience with hunting, fishing, farming and working with livestock. I’m not new to prepping and have my own supplies, I don’t have a bug out location as of yet.
Hello! I am from the Denton area and I am interested in starting, or joining a group.
I unfortunately do not have a homestead or bugout, but I do have necessary supplies incase of a catastrophe. My teammates must have their own bugout/homestead, and be willing to share their place with other teammates.
In return, teammates will share valuable supplies with the group, share any skills they have, and be willing to defend the group as a family.
I will not arrive empty handed, and will most certainly have items to help all of us. I need others with the same mindset to reach out to me soon. [email protected] is where I reply back instantly.
I will contact informed Preppers so we can create a group with many knowledgeable people.
If somebody has a group, which relates to the description I gave, and preferably are Christians then reach out to me soon. I am young, but have knowledge to help in case of an emergency.
Furthermore, if anyone is interested in starting a group, has their own homestead, copy my email and reach out to me as soon as possible.
For those that may be interested, I’m affiliated with an organization that is working hard to try and create a network of preparedness teams throughout the state of Texas: https://www.sntnls.org/index.php
We are looking to grow our membership and create training opportunities for members that they may not otherwise have access to.
I’d be happy to answer any questions if there is interest.
Hello, I am looking for a location and group to bug out to in the event of varying degrees of societal collapse. I am new to this and not really a “prepper” but have thought having catastrophe plans would be good for my family.
I am in my 30s and am a husband with wife and three small children and I love Jesus. I am a doctor with broad range of training. I have experience in critical care, advanced trauma life support, emergency medicine, surgical skills with advanced wound management, and proficient at suturing. I hope to have a medical stash soon with antibiotics and trauma/emergency instruments and supplies. Ideally the bug out location would be relatively close, within an hour or two west of fort worth but willing to explore other options.
Really looking for a level headed person/group who is reasonable but also has secure location with supplies to bug out for extended periods if needed.
I would like to find a prepper group or 3per in the Amarillo Tx. area.

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.

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.

Family of five to ten looking to move with 90 to 120 days notice.
We are Christians. My wife and I are retired and debt free with moderate monthly income (long as the economy lasts). We are looking to live a self sustaining life style full time and move to join a group or help start one. By living a self-sustainable lifestyle before you can survive while thriving after any crises that may occur. I am not looking for a place to hide and die but a permanent change in lifestyle to start getting off the grid as we can and then staying off the grid in a secure, secluded area.
I don’t want to work hard and dumb but simple and basic. I have a lot of tools and equipment. I hope to also get (or build) a saw mill and backhoe.
We have food, water filters, some weapons and ammo and a camper to live in till I can build a living structure. Will be building some type of an earth structure from one of the following: Aircrete, CEB, (compressed earth block) Rammed Earth Bags and/or Adobe using the reactive home concept for a living structure (no mechanical heating or cooling) as taught by Bill Mollison long before Mike Reynolds’ Earth Ship concept ever came along. I am thinking about build my own CEB press. I also have the material to build a metal roof for a shop about 40’x40′ using earth walls from local soil.
I believe biofuel is one answer for renewable fuel and garbage scrap disposal.
Aquaponics is the only real answer to a year round renewable food source of meat and vegetables that I am aware of. Built in a reactive greenhouse.
I have personal experience with compost toilets and have built two of them so far with good results.
We have a 2000 gal. rain catchment system in place at our current location. Designed for a purification system that is renewable without going to the store for filters. We built a furnace to make activated charcoal to use with sand (which is in abundance). We have most of the purification system already assembled and ready for food grade 55 gal barrels.
If we join a group, we will need at least 1-2 acres to build and live on. We want to help others do the same, we also want to work on the common area preparing it for the group for when it all falls apart.
I am learning more every day and by no means have even scratched the surface so I want to learn all I can from others as well.
We have started converting our lights over to LED lighting, 12v rolls of strip lights in the old 120v light fixtures. With changes in electrical consumption we have cut our usage in half over the last year getting ready to switch to solar and wind with battery storage. I am leaving the old 120v system in place so I can take the new system with me.
I have a wife, two sons, (23 & 31) a daughter-in-law, daughter (26) with 3 year old son all in better than average health. We also have friends who want to go with us as time will permit them to do so.
No medications required for any of us as we use essential oils, herbs and supplements and hopping to start grow a lot of what we will need. I am looking forward to learning more on how to make tinctures and our own E oils. As well as canned and fermented foods(the more of this the less refrigeration needed). We are all on board for this.
We thought we had a place but it didn’t work out so we need to get out of the city. We currently live in a highly populated area in an irrigated desert which is running out of water. When power is gone, the water will be gone as will civil order.
I am a Army Vet 73 to 77 was an E5 Motor Sgt in Schweinfurt, Germany.
We have construction experience, electrical, plumbing, welding, machine, metal buildings & roofs (one retro fit roof the size of two foot ball fields 82′ up), mechanic of both gas and diesel, solar hot water system, semi truck driver, some reloading experience and equipment, certified gun smith (passed a test), canning experience with canning equipment and much more.
I have worked relief on two hurricanes working almost 30 days with each one. So I have seen total destruction, civil disorder, rioting, marshal law with state troopers and national guard. I’ve also seen families who were desperate and not prepared at all along with families who never missed a beat as they were ready for the natural disaster that hit. I lived at a mission base 13 years ago with my oldest son for two months in the Amazon without power so we ate meat only when we had caught or killed it.
Eleven years ago we lived in a camper for one year on the road along the eastern coast from Niagara Falls, along the outer bank islands to Beaumont Texas then on to El Paso, down to Las Cruces, N.M, then from Sholo to Sahuarita, Arizona while homeschooling my two youngest.
We are debt free and looking to be in a group with christian values to connect with and then relocate to, which will not be a quick process as we will need to get to know each other (although time is short). Don’t need decoder rings but security is an important point before we consider joining forces with others. We are not looking for a group to join but one to be a part of to form friendship and trust where we cover each others back or 6 as some say.
We have served the Lord for 23 years full time without a paying full time job so we do not have a nest egg or 401K so if you are looking for someone with a lot of money look somewhere else. If you would like a Godly relationship with a hard working and honest family then we are open to more communications as to how we could fit together. We can support ourselves and are not looking for a free ride.
If you want to talk about someday maybe doing something then please find someone who is looking to someday maybe doing something to talk to.
If you are ready to act now, I have much more to share but will do so in a more private way. So contact me then we can talk privately. Email me and I will send you my phone number.

I am a teacher looking for a prepper group outside of Houston – outside of Dallas, San Antonio, or Austin (and I’m open to other areas if the right fit). I’ve been seriously considering living permanently in an RV to save money and have a bug-out vehicle. I was raised on a farm and looking to live that simple, joyful life again. I’ve been studying the Bible, watched many documentaries, and read a lot of independent news – all pointing to end times very near, such as an economic collapse and/or major catastrophes. Recently, one quote from Jesus that got my attention is, “Look, I will come as unexpectedly as a thief! Blessed are all who are watching for me, who keep their clothing ready so they will not have to walk around naked and ashamed.” (Rev 16:15)
I interpret that to mean that those of us who are watching for Jesus to come back will see the signs and prepare, thus preventing the unnecessary suffering that comes with not preparing. I think of the danger of being in the cities, FEMA, coastline disasters, flooding in low elevation, being without shelter, clothing, and food if forced to evacuate unexpectedly. So many people tell me not to listen the doom and gloom, to be more optimistic, that I’m creating insecurity this way, that I should buy real estate and make money instead of buying an RV and being a nomad, that we’re going to die anyway, blah blah… I am looking for like-minded people with strong minds, level-headed people, Christians, who will be an extended family to me and my daughter. Please let me know if you’re interested in discussing further, or if you have any advice or thoughts on what I’ve shared, please reply. Thank you.
Warm regards,
Kim

My wife and I have a room in our home that we need to rent. We are only interested in renting to another prepper. If you live alone, you’ll be in a fix if SHTF. As well, we understand the idea of safety in numbers and would prefer to have an additional responsible adult here at our home. We live in Lewisville on the west side of I-35 between 121 Business and Fox Avenue. Rent is $475 per month. If you are interested, let’s meet somewhere and discuss your situation to see if we might be a proper fit. Rule number one, we’re not renting to anyone who’s going to drain rather than compliment our resources. We require you to have your own. We’ll not give away half of our provisions because we invited the wrong person in. We do not smoke cigarettes. Additionally, as a matter of TX law and our own standards, we are not permitted to have sex offenders living at our residence. Please text us nine7two-83six-742one if you’re interested in meeting.
