The bestselling resource for modern homesteading, growing and preserving foods, and raising chickens, The Encyclopedia of Country Living includes how to cultivate a garden, buy land, bake bread, raise farm animals, make sausage, can peaches, milk a goat, grow herbs, churn butter, build a chicken coop, catch a pig, cook on a wood stove, and much, much more. This comprehensive resource is the most authoritative guide available to a sustainable lifestyle and living off of the land.
Carla Emery started writing The Encyclopedia of Country Living in 1969 during the back-to-the-land movement of that time. She continued to add content and refine the information over the years, and the book went from a self-published mimeographed document to a book of 928 pages.
This 40th Anniversary Edition reflects the most up-to-date resource information and the most personal version of the book that became Carla Emery's life work. It is the original manual of basic country skills that have proved essential and necessary for people living in the country, the city, and everywhere in between.
Carla Emery's The Encyclopedia of Country Living contains 1,000,000 words, 2,000+ recipes, and 1,500+ mail-order sources (for everything she tells you how to do, she also tells you where to get the supplies to do it). This book is so basic, so thorough, so reliable, that it deserves a place in every home.

This 2012 updated reprint features information on Atraumatic Restorative Treatment (ART), a way to fill cavities without the use of a dental drill, as well as updated information on other training material and resources. This book is an important companion to Hesperian's classic book Where There Is No Doctor. All Hesperian books are regularly updated and reprinted to reflect accurate medical information.
Community health workers, educators and individuals from around the world use Where There Is No Dentist to help people care for their teeth and gums. This book's broad focus makes it an invaluable resource. The author uses straightforward language and careful instructions to explain how to: examine patients; diagnose common dental problems; make and use dental equipment; use local anesthetics; place fillings; and remove teeth. There is also a special chapter on oral health and HIV/AIDS, which provides the dental worker with a detailed, well-illustrated discussion of the special problems faced by people living with HIV/AIDS, and appropriate treatment.
In the prepper realm often books such as this are not thought of, however I consider them a great asset to have. Ultimately our goal as preppers is self reliance and being able to maintain and repair what we have on our own should be a part of that strategy.

Omega Group Consultants is at its core an adventurous survival oriented organization. All of our courses, services and programs can be associated with at least one of the core fundamental building blocks of a warrior. Those four fundamentals are;
**SURVIVAL
TACTICS
PREPARATION
FITNESS**
We profess as a Company that those four fundamental bases are imperative to physical survival in any situation. As such we offer a wide variety of courses and events that cater to the development, growth and strengthening of those critical areas. Both a young adult and seasoned combat veteran (and anyone in between) can benefit greatly from our various courses offered. Please take your time and browse through our site to familiarize yourself with the wide array of activities we offer. Another great benefit we offer is customized events and courses for no additional charge. If you have a group of ten or more people and you would like a specific tailored event please feel free to contact us so we can assist in putting together perfect curriculum for your group.
In addition to the great courses and events we host, we also lease our facilities for training use. This is primarily done for Military and Law Enforcement agencies, however in some circumstances we lease facilities to other organizations as well (ie. Scouts, Church, Family Reunion etc..). Please contact us with your needs and request for more information if this is something you may need.
