INDEPENDENCE DAY PONDS!
We’re collecting information about how ponds can be used to boost self-sufficiency. Let us know if you have any thoughts or experience using ponds to grow or collect food (fish, plants) or generate energy that can reduce our dependence on storebought groceries and the municipal electric grid, and any other ways to cut living expenses and enhance independence and emergency preparedness.
