Ideally, a cooperative of sorts with those in the community can be mutually beneficial to all. Trading of supplies and skills aids all in the cooperative. You can have a larger area to maintain a food and water supply while a soft perimeter with established lookouts and signals can alert others to impending dangers or red flag situations.   Those in the farming community already unknowingly practice this.  They get together at the coffee shop to talk and B.S., but the information each share benefits the others. I.e.  I noticed I had a spot of army worms creeping into my field on the Smith place. Then the neighbor starts watching his place a little closer for the same pest. And how many times have you heard of a farmer in the community losing a tractor or other equipment only to have his neighbors show up and finish the job for him?Do your best to plan and prepare, but be selfless in your actions with your neighbors and those favors will more than likely be returned when you need them the most. Secure, protect and defend your place and your family, but be willing to do the same for the trusted confidants in your community/cooperative.  Help them defend their property and family as if it were your own, and you will be family.</blockquote>
