Samuel Bennington

Samuel Bennington grew up in the rugged countryside of Vermont, where self-reliance was a way of life. His parents, a skilled carpenter and an avid gardener, instilled in him the importance of resourcefulness. From harvesting food to fixing tools, Samuel learned how to adapt and thrive under any circumstances. A pivotal moment came during a brutal Vermont winter storm that left his town stranded without power for weeks. Samuel used his knowledge to create a makeshift heating system, ration supplies, and help neighbors. That experience shaped his belief that preparedness isn’t about fear—it’s about protecting those you love. Over three decades, Samuel has refined his expertise through hands-on projects in off-grid living, including energy systems, water management, and food preservation. He’s taught countless workshops, helping families adopt affordable, scalable solutions for greater independence. Samuel understands the challenges of getting started in preparedness. His book, *The Prepper’s Survival Bible*, breaks down complex topics into actionable steps, empowering readers to build skills and confidence. Filled with personal stories, tested methods, and practical advice, his guide is a blueprint for safeguarding your family and building a secure, sustainable future—no matter what life throws your way.
