Many decades ago, when I was a teenager, I found my way to Santa Monica, California from the high desert of West Texas for a promised job. It was love at first sight. While the job never materialized, Southern California was a magical landscape — and at the time, a hotbed of everything that made the American dream the envy of the world. It was beguiling, charming, and demanding.
No one cared about you, your pedigree or background. They cared about your talent and drive. They cared about ideas and determination. Every waiter and waitress, every bellhop, and every kid like me was looking for the opportunity to plug into the sockets of power that promised success in return for hard work and responsibility.
The hills above the city were exotic and unique, dotted with beautiful homes both old and new, unique locations, ranches and estates – the chaparral landscape dense with the odor of plants and scrubs basking in the sunshine. The magnificent Pacific Ocean’s expanse was like the bluest crystal to the west, so inviting and yet so risky for those who mistook beauty for tranquility.
In the years since, though I never lived in California, I’ve traveled up and down her coast many times, into her cities and inland treasures – and only grew fonder of this spectacular land.
Now many of those stunningly beautiful LA hills are reduced to smoking rubble. Dozens are dead and 10,000 homes are gone in a horrifying, heart-wrenching tragedy. […]

Why One Survival Food Company Shines Above the Rest
Let’s be real. “Prepper Food” or “Survival Food” is generally awful. The vast majority of companies that push their cans, bags, or buckets desperately hope that their customers never try them and stick them in the closet or pantry instead. Why? Because if the first time they try them is after the crap hits the fan, they’ll be too shaken to call and complain about the quality.
It’s true. Most long-term storage food is made with the cheapest possible ingredients with limited taste and even less nutritional value. This is why they tout calories so much. Sure, they provide calories but does anyone really want to go into the apocalypse with food their family can’t stand?
This is what prompted the Llewellyns to launch Heaven’s Harvest. They bought survival food from multiple companies and determined they couldn’t imagine being stuck in an extended emergency with such low-quality food. They quickly discovered that freeze drying food for long-term storage doesn’t have to mean sacrificing flavor, consistency, or nutrition.
Their ingredients are all-American. In fact, they’re locally sourced and all-natural! This allows their products to be the highest quality on the market, so good that their customers often break open a bag in a pinch to eat because they want to, not just because they have to due to an emergency.
At Heaven’s Harvest, their only focus is amazing food. They don’t sell bugout bags, solar chargers, or multitools. They have one mission – feeding Americans in times of crisis.
What they DO offer is the ability for people to thrive in times of greatest need. On top of long-term storage food, they offer seeds to help Americans for the truly long-term. They want them to grow their own food if possible which is why they offer only Heirloom, Non-GMO, Non-Hybrid, Open-Pollinated seeds so their customers can build permanent food security on their own property.
