Nostr Web Client

It has been almost a year since I lasted posted on Nostr.

Essentially my life turned upside down, we closed our market garden in Rainbow, moved 4 hours away to the coast and listed our home and vacant land for sale.

We are now in the process of setting up our second market garden, this time in a area where people actually care about good food and health.

It has been a depressing journey for the last 12 months but the light in shining through again. Glad to be back here and posting again

Sorry to hear, but things are looking great. Welcome back!

Marks 1y ago

That’s quite a journey. Hope this new place is better for you and the family! Welcome back 🤙

Evan Young 1y ago

So much better, we now live on the edge of a small fishing village surrounded by a Tea Tree forest, 1 km from a river, 3 km from the ocean. People here are friendly and supportive of what we are trying to do. Essentially the exact opposite of the last 6 years of our lives

Welcome back. 👊🫂⚡️

Thank you

Matthieu 1y ago

So good to hear you’re finding a new place where you can find appreciation doing good work.

Things look like they’re growing great!

Evan Young 1y ago

Thank you. The soil here is mostly sand and organic matter. Its full of worms already and yes things are growing really well. We ate our first baby spinach last night, beetroots will be next

Matthew D 1y ago

Hell yeah. Nice picture.

Best of luck this spring, hope the weather works out for ya.

Evan Young 1y ago

Thanks Matthew, I am hoping this garden is very photogenic and that we can eventually do a lot of farm tours. We are in southern Australia so are currently in Autumn/Fall. As we are in Australia and on the coast we get almost zero frost and have a moderate climate so can grow all year.

Matthew D 1y ago

that can be a blessing and a curse to be sure. Do you deal with elevated pest pressure at all?

Evan Young 1y ago

There are nowhere near as many pest bugs in Australia as in the USA for whatever reason. I have found that keeping a very clean garden and mulching with compost keeps most bugs away. We have a species called Cabbage Moth which like to eat all brassica's so we use insect netting over all of those crops. It equates to a 20% shade cloth.

We kangaroos and rabbits everywhere here which require the equivalent of deer fencing with smaller gauge fencing at the bottom for the rabbits. Koalas can climb over and come through but they don't eat vegetables.

Matthew D 1y ago

our plants are sick, they can't defend themselves here. I guess I was wondering if a lack of winter with a hard freeze in your climate increases the pest pressure.

Welcome back!

Welcome back. The clients still dont work good on desktop

I'm back also after a long absence from nostr.

it's extremely hard to make people aware of healthy living that includes knowing where your food comes from and the condition of food in the commercial landscape.

good luck on your further endeavors

Evan Young 1y ago

Thank you. I have been playing around with Twitter but really don't get any positive interactions on there. I was having a good time on Flote before that imploded, Nostr is far better than both Twitter and Flote.

Beautiful garden! Welcome back to Nostr 😊

Evan Young 1y ago

Thank you, we live in a beautiful place and put a lot of work into the layout of this garden. Our business is called Nelson OMG, the OMG stands for Organic Market Garden but we also want to people to say Oh My God when they see it

If you can remember back in Aug - Sept at $25ks how it felt like it couldn’t go up but down only right? Until it got to 75k and then now 57k and a lot have started to panic.

Now it also feels like #Bitcoin can’t go up or it taking too long right? Yes, The market is simply following it’s usual pattern

If you haven’t join the (RCL) vip group yet you’re missing out. they are doing a great job in demystifying biases in #Bitcoin and bringing clarity to controversies, you can easily 174x your portfolio with the arbitrage algorithm integration in longterm interval.
