Aaron Fletcher has been preparing for America to collapse for 15 years. He lives in a homemade cart pulled by sheep and drinks their milk. Aaron does chores around farms, where he lives in exchange for a safe place to stay. He says that homeless people in cities would be better off in the countryside like him. See how a nomadic shepherd believes everyone will have to live in a post-apocalyptic world.

Very interesting, but gross on his 'cleaning', not sure where to go with it!! Overall, 'like'!!

I don't know if I'd call him a prepper, he's kind of just living differently. Homeless nomad type. He is still needing community to function, for work and food. Wondering about the wet weather in Oregon, and the winter cold. Sheep don't do well wet and cold. Does he bring them in his camper thingy?

It's a poor measure of health that you fit in with dysfunctional society?

That's what homesteading is all about? Abandoning the rat race for a better and simpler word. Our world. Of our own making?

Interesting. I wonder what a psychiatrist would say about him and his lifestyle, not that psychiatrists are necessarily the voice of reason.

Every psychologist I ever met was a straight-up whack job, lol... I'd sooner listen to the nomadic shepherd.

 

[Amish Heart]

The way he speaks and how he talks reminds me of little granddaughter's mom's boyfriend, Boxcar. He lives homeless, but on the fringe of the bigger town.

So interesting! Just saw a reel about him on Instagram the other day. He's an inspiration, honestly IMO.

Not what I would define as a prepper and I'm not pleased to be painted with the same brush.

He's a likable nut, just like our goatman was.
And I bet he smells just as bad!

Good for him finding his calling. But please do not invite homeless to my country side! Not all are bad but not all are good!

The fella I've been learning plant medicine from, darryl patton, wrote a book about 'The Goat Man' in 1994. Has talked about him several times to me. Charles Mccartney, I think he died a few years after darryl's book.

A hard copy of the book is about $60, no longer in print..

Just going on what I heard, some homeboys caught him camping and beat the crap out of him and shot several of his goats, he retired after that.
