Hi there! I’m Lisa Bedford
I help moms learn how to prepare and equip their families for those critical moments when life hits you hard and there’s no time to figure out what to do.
I’ve spent 15 years creating a home and lifestyle that has survived natural disasters, financial setbacks, and family crises. Through these experiences, I’ve developed a unique way of prepping, one that creates a harmonious and prepared home without paranoia or panic.
My mission is to share these proven strategies with you, so you can build a home and family life that thrives no matter what.

Emergency Planning
Survival Moms know how to handle anything life throws their way, and "prepping" is just planning and being proactive for whatever lies ahead.
Food Storage
Your family can become more resilient; your lifestyle more sustainable
You don’t need a homestead, a rural location, or an especially green thumb to create a sustainable lifestyle.
Homesteading is first a mindset. It’s putting little things in place, like learning to cook from scratch, using natural remedies, experimenting with plants, and learning what will grow (and not grow) in your location.
It’s learning how to bloom no matter where you happen to be planted.
Homesteading & Gardening
You want your family to be safe, healthy, and happy. Here, you’ll find resources and tips for natural remedies, how to start homeschooling, enjoying the frugal lifestyle and promoting a culture of self-reliance in your family.
