One item that I believe should be in every home is the “Foxfire” series of books. One can learn the basics of survival in a world without Wallyworld in those books while being entertained. It’s too bad so many people don’t read.<<<

Yes, Yes, possibility that they are the most important books that one can own.

I have part of the set, I know some of my education on spinning and weaving came from them.

There are plans on the internet for making tools, weapons and so many things that we buy in the stores today.

Your list is excellent, wise and planned out, good for you.

Thank you for sharing it.

This is an interesting thread.. begun months ago.

Does anyone know anything about a “rain barrel drain system”? Is it simply for extra non-potable water, or does/can it get complicated to filter, cleanse, etc.?

A house on our “to see” list for retirement lists this feature.
