What water sources (outside of bottled water) do you have in your home or within 1 mile of your home that you might be able to access?

Tell us:

What purification methods do you have right now?

Have you tested them?

What water sources do you plan to use those with?

There is no judgement here. This weeks topic for this month is talking about calculating your needs. So, the question is, how much do you have stored right now?

Tell us your creative places that you store water! I have more than one location, as seen in the Week 2 video, I try to store it EEEEVERYWHERE I can. And don’t worry if you feel you “don’t have enough”. I get it. None of us really feel like we have enough. But we just do the best we can. This is PART of your water plan.

How do you rotate water?

I rotate by:

Using it in my morning coffee
Using it in plants
Taking it on vacations or daily outings with kids to the park
For pets (or at least we did when we had pets)
And just drink it!

How do YOU rotate your water??

If you’re new here, please introduce yourself.

Morgan – I know this is more for the Week 4 Water focus on purification/filtering – Would you include what you need to do with outdoor water to keep it usable. I know sometimes it is used for flushing toilets, so no purity is needed. However, if you store water outdoors for watering the garden (ex. raised beds) what concerns do you have with it being stored in a plastic container, possibly in heat/humidity? Thanks.

Hi, everyone! I’m Stephanie. I’m here to build confidence in basic preparedness so I can feel capable in unexpected situations, and finally stop saying, “If anything happens, we’ll just all go to dad’s house.” I’m new to this world, but ready to take action and move from fear to confidence. Excited to learn more!
