Since I haven't heard from anyone except oldschool and my mind has returned from holiday and birthday party mode I will make an executive decision to keep it simple.
Let's do a one day event at Richters. Here's the driving instructions - http://www.richters.com/show.cgi?page=visit.html
Let's meet at 10am till 3ish on AUGUST 11TH and if we want to continue we can always head to a nearby restaurant for dinner to continue the conversation. I'm not sure what is relatively close by - anyone??? I think that most of us will be newbies to a preppers meeting so don't let fear of the unknown stop you from coming. Even if you don't feel you have something to share I'm sure you do
Since we'll be at Richters (thanks Spinkx!!) and discussing herbs with the owner I think that can easily and naturally be expanded to gardening and food so if we need a theme that makes sense to me.
OK - NOW who's in??

I can't be there that weekend. My oldest is 18 that weekend as well I have a wedding on the 11th (I have worked too hard on the quilt for this wedding to not go, I am quite proud of the creation of it lol) 🙁 Hope you all have a spectacular time! And hopefully I can catch the next one 🙂
August 11 is good for me.

and I just checked, there is a Swiss Chalet close by
I'm hoping to make it and planning to bring a friend or two.
My fiancee is competing in her first triathlon on the 12th though, and I'm her trainer, so I'm hoping that we'll be at a point that she can take the 11th off, rather than need a last minute training session.
It's coming... and it's going to hurt!
This is sounding great! Potluck lunch perhaps?
Spinkx79 - Do we need a shelter of some kind or is there something there?

I am in, so is hubby, just have to confirm a sitter!
Ok, I have confirmed Aug 11 (10am - 3pm) with the folks at Richters.
We have the owner for an hour at min to discuss prepper friendly medicinal herbs with us and answer any questions we may have. Bring your pen and paper. I have asked him to prepare a list of the top 5-10 prepper herbs.
There are no shelter availables, we have access to 2 grassy areas and a gravel parkinglot, I will head up there and figure out which one will be best. We will have access to bathrooms, electricity can be run with an extension cord if required. If by chance it rains we will be able to move into the greenhouse or possibly the wharehouse...But thats not gonna happen 😉 So bring your pop up tents or sun shelters if you need them.
For food, potluck works for me, if not Uxbridge is only 5 min away.
As we get closer I have been asked to advise them aprox how many people will be attending.
Other then that, its booked and were good to go!
Thanks for setting it up Spinkx79 !

Thanks for organizing it! I still hope to make it, with a friend or two in tow.
If potluck is the call, I'll probably bring some really good (no, seriously) gluten-free bread & biscuits.
I have a ton of projects in various stages of completion right now, so I doubt I'll bring any of them for show & tell. Maybe instead I'll bring my library of survival & simplistic living books.
It's coming... and it's going to hurt!
I'm in and I only live 30 minutes away. Looking forward to meeting everyone. I've never done this before, so is there anything to bring or show?
A lawn chair, something to share for a pot-luck lunch, paper and pen, something to drink, anything you would like to "show and tell".
I don't think any of us have done this before 🙂

I'm going to try to make it down. Richtes is only about 35 min south of me. Driven by it a million time never have had time to stop.
I look after an elderly parent, so if I can get someone to cover for me for the day, I'll be there. If not I might be able to pop in for a couple hours.
that would be great jwild101!! Hope to see you there.
