How old is the average prepper?

heathenwench · 2012-02-26T13:15:08Z

We don't want to step on any privacy toes, but have been wondering lately what the age break down was for the prepping community. We are baby boomers, 61 and 54, with a blended family of 6 kids, 38,34,33,24,22,and 19 years old. Some of the kids think we are nuts, but the 19 year old completely gets it. Just thought it might be an interesting thing to know in the event that things get ugly.

I'm 32, born in NWT, raised in small town N Ontario. Mom always(used to) can...everything really. Mom was raised in WW2 Glasgow, she passed on the incessant need to stockpile food, just in case.
Dad grew up barefoot on a farm, he passed on the need to grow your own and do for yourself.
I'm 'married', two kids, and I love canning, gardening, fishing, wish i knew how to hunt, and learning to identify edible wild plants.
