Preppers live a secret life and most want to keep it that way but others would love to meet other preppers and share their prepping knowledge, ideas and experiences. You can see the value in a team of people who share the common goal of survival and you realize the wisdom in pooling your resources with a group of individuals who are able to mutually benefit each other in a time of crisis.There is strength in numbers so a larger survival group is going to be able to do more. With more people you have more ideas, more resources, more skills, more intuition, perspective and wisdom. The only problem is how to find other preppers near you without possibly ruining any OPSEC you have tried to maintain or by looking desperate.On this episode of The Prepping Academy Forrest Garvin and Kyle discuss how to start an area group. Why you should act fast. Don’t confuse these groups with a MAG/Survival group but they might grow into that over time. This is almost a build it, and they will come plan.We discuss how Forrest created the largest and most active prepper group in the USA. The Carolina Preppers Network currently has over 3,400 members that meets monthly in 9 cities in the Carolinas covering topic around prepping, survival or self-sufficiency. We cover how to start a prepper group meetup, how to get the word out to other preppers in your area, how to run your first meeting and what topics to discuss. We also talk about the cost and how to find sponsors to offset the cost. This is not hard and trust us, you can do it.Signed up for The Prepping Academy newsletter at preppingacademy.com.
