I'm looking for a wide variety of topics. Feel free to call me crazy :)! But I would love any/all info regarding the following:

  1. Self-sufficient farming and gardening techniques
  2. Solar power installation and maintenance
  3. Water collection and filtration methods
  4. Off-grid food preservation options (canning, fermenting, dehydration)
  5. Constructing and maintaining off-grid shelters (tiny homes, yurts, earthships)
  6. Sustainable waste management practices
  7. Home remedies and natural medicine for common ailments
  8. Wild foraging and hunting skills
  9. Basic wilderness survival skills (fire building, shelter construction, navigation)
  10. Off-grid communication methods (shortwave radios, Morse code)
  11. DIY appliances and tools for off-grid living
  12. Sustainable living practices (permaculture, composting, recycling)
  13. Essential off-grid kitchen equipment and cooking techniques
  14. Emergency preparedness and disaster management
  15. Financial planning and budgeting for off-grid living.

Please feel free to include any topics along those lines. I'm sure if you've read to this point you get where I'm going.

[SurvivalManual] (https://github.com/ligi/SurvivalManual)

There is an app for this. Works offline, available on fdroid and playstore. Covers a lot of topics and the manual is mostly based on military guidelines.

Never needed yet, but it feels good to have it.

Just a thought: these resources are great. But to be helpful printed stuff is way better because you dont need electricity for that.

Humble Bundle just had a good collection on that. Can't find it now but books on homesteading, medical plants, finding people lost on the woods, going off-grid, and various books about rural cooking.

Edit: Must have expired last night. I can't find any info on it.

Thank you for an interesting discussion! In particular I like the fact that you listed out a lot of sustainable practices!

ps-survival.com and CD3WD were projects that were big when i first got into prepping at the start of the pandemic. Both of the sites seem to be defunct but there are still mirrors/copies/torrents of the info available online since they were both created to be downloaded for offline use.

Lots of prepper channels on Telegram with pdfs, eg https://t.me/PrepperCollective

I'd check out your local library. Obviously you can't take the books, but you can check em out and learn.

CD3WD Survival Skills Encyclopeadia

There was also a 4gb archive floating around r/survivalism

How to Invent Everything is a good, humorous take on restarting society from first principles. It's obviously not aimed at what you are going for but it has plenty of good information on all of those topics. Next search for Military manuals.

I would also recommend attending some courses if you haven't done so already. It is great to research this topic, but many of those points you list require skill acquisition that can only be learned out field.
