Early Activities and Shared Concerns

  • Organize around disaster preparedness with something easy like a neighborhood call tree for redundant coverage.
  • Ask the shared questions: do we have enough to eat if stores close, enough clean water, and support for the elderly and disabled?
  • Schedule regular meetings and organize potlucks; Procurement determines who brings what and Production makes the meal.
  • Form sub-committees for specific projects, such as a Horticulture sub-committee under Production for a community garden.
  • Potatoes are a great starter crop: resilient, calorie-rich, and difficult to mess up.
  • Start now, since growing methods can take multiple seasons to perfect in your context.
  • Stop worrying about when things will happen and act; shared needs are the organizing focus.
