My husband doesn't believe in "prepping". I think he views prepping as being the people you see on television, wearing gas masks to the grocery store and carrying assault rifles to pick up their kids from daycare, to take them home to their pantries of 200 boxes of expired Hamburger Helper. Anytime I mention "prepping" he rolls his eyes. For some, this might be a serious problem, or at worst, a deal breaker.
BUT! I have come up with a solution to this problem. If he doesn't like the word "prepping", I simply rephrase everything in the mindset of...
..."self-sustainable". So our "self sustainable" lifestyle includes the following: permaculture farming, canning, thrifty living, dehydrating, forest safety, bread making, knitting, sewing, herbalism, naturopathy, and a 35 acre plot of land we purchased with a partner to build a "self-sustainable" community. This community will be all the things one might need should the economy collapse, etc. including solar and wind power, a community center, bees, gardens, livestock, and so forth. I've actually started to prepare our homeschool curriculum to include "self-sustainable" curriculum for our children, including permaculture, gardening, etc. Everything we do revolves around being "self-sustainable". He's so cute when he talks about it and in the back of my mind, I'm snickering and going, "You're such a prepper, honey".
