Resiliency is a worthwhile pursuit, both for individuals and communities. But how to build strength into our lives as citizens? And into our towns? According to author Scott James, the answer lies within our neighborhoods, where sustainability meets preparedness. Prepared Neighborhoods will walk you step by step through creating a more resilient - and enjoyable - neighborhood and community. Self-sufficiency for every citizen is not realistic nor desirable. Creating group resilience through urban homesteading and neighborhood preparedness projects is a much more attractive goal that leads to a stronger community and brighter future!
