Hi, and welcome.
Prepping skills come in all flavours. You'll find this group has a load of informative posts about preparing for the situation we find ourselves in now. Some of us see this lockdown as being a dress rehearsal for something more serious..... Such as a second wave lockdown stretching into winter.
Enjoy your countryside but weigh up whether bugging in is the more likely, if less glamourous scenario than living off the land.
