I'm making plans for 6 months. Any more than that and the sheer volume of food you need to stock up on is ridiculous. Obviously it depends on the event but if it's TEOTWAWKI then I'd be looking to get seeds planted asap. 6 months down the line and you should know where you stand. I also think the first 6 months will sort the men from the boys. Anyone not prepared will be dead or dieing and those that are left will be starting to pull together to get some semblance of community restored.
