A new school
year is underway, and the temperatures seem to be dropping! September brings
new friends and teachers, as well as a harvest in the garden and orchard.
September is also “National Preparedness Month” - so it is a great time to take
stock of where you stand with preparedness! How did your summer canning go?
What do you need to fill your shelves? There are always case-lot sales at the
local grocery stores in September that will help fill in what you still
need. Local sales usually include great
buys on other preparedness items like buckets or water barrels and containers.
Let us spend some time evaluating where we are, and then go and “Do IT”! Take
advantage of this preparedness month and give your family peace of mind. Then
when the “Storms” appear, we will be ready! Remember – there is no time like
the present!
