Urban Lady Prepper

Practical Preparedness for Single Moms and Solo Women Living in the City. Hi! My name is Lynn Jordan. Single moms and solo women are not well represented in the prepper community, and I intend to change that! From losing a job to a natural disaster to a zombie apocalypse, you CAN be a prepper with limited space and a tight budget. I’m happy to show you how with grit, grace, and humor. While single ladies are my focus, ALL ARE WELCOME HERE! It’s time to get aboard the preparedness train and be ready for whatever the future brings.
