Statement of Values
We are a pro-American community that believes in the Constitution, Second Amendment rights, and conservative values while fostering respect, self-reliance, and community support. Our focus is on preparedness, sustainability, and self-sufficiency—not fear-driven prepping, but building resilient families and communities.
We are not a far-right militia group or an extremist organization. While many of our members hold faith-based and Christian values, we welcome all who believe in and live by the Golden Rule—treating others with respect, honesty, and fairness.
Our community is built on principles of freedom, responsibility, and resilience, with a commitment to:
- ✔ Faith, Family, & Freedom – Upholding moral values, personal responsibility, and individual liberty.
- ✔ The Right to Defend & Provide – Supporting lawful firearms ownership, self-defense, and hunting.
- ✔ Sustainability & Self-Sufficiency – Encouraging homesteading, local food production, and resourcefulness.
- ✔ Preparedness with Purpose – Readiness for challenges without paranoia or fearmongering.
- ✔ Respect & Integrity – Engaging in constructive, civil discourse without hostility or division.
We welcome those who share our love of country, freedom, and self-reliance, whether they are farmers, ranchers, homesteaders, tradesmen, parents, or patriots—people who are committed to building a strong and prepared future for themselves, their families, and their communities.
