How to Manage a Power Outage

If you are on the grid, more than likely you will experience a power outage. It’s not so much as a matter of if but when. If you’re lucky, the outage will be brief, maybe just a few hours. But unfortunately, it could be longer…

Today, we’re turning to homesteader and blogger Patrice Lewis for some helpful advice on how to manage a power outage and prepare your household. As we always say at Lehman’s, “Be prepared. Not scared!” It always better to plan now, so you’re ready for when you need it most.

Here are some past posts from Patrice that will help get you started with your emergency planning.
