Mike Toberer, founder of Mission Mules and owner of Mountain Mule Packers, joins us to share how pack mules have been used to deliver critical supplies in real disasters. After Hurricane Helene devastated Western North Carolina, Mike and his team took mules into areas where roads had collapsed and no vehicles could reach. He shares powerful stories from the ground, including the heartbreaking loss of several mules and how Samaritan’s Purse stepped in to help them continue the mission.

We also discuss the team’s work in Texas after major flooding, where they supported river recovery crews and began exploring new ways to combine mules with drones and communications for future responses. Mike also talks about their international deployment to Jamaica, where they delivered and set up a large-scale water filtration system. This episode is filled with real-world lessons on low-tech resilience, faith in action, community response, and practical preparedness strategies. In this episode we cover:

How mules were used during Hurricane Helene relief
The emotional and logistical challenges of the mission
What the team did in Texas flood recovery
Expanding capabilities with drones and technology
Faith, community, and “prepare for the worst, pray for the best”
