The govt can't tax the work you perform directly for yourself.

The govt also can't tax the work that plants, worms, bacteria & animals perform for you. That's why they want you to buy from farmers that use heavy machinery & fancy fertilisers/chemicals.

Since discovering Bitcoin, I've also been rediscovering permaculture. For me, it's been about building resilience rather than becoming self sufficient.

Yesterday I finished planting 84 ice cream bean trees from seeds I collected from my mature tree. I have a long mound of dirt that I made with an excavator last year. I've no idea all the mistakes I've made yet but it's fun to play with nature & life again.

The name is deceptive. The pods have a sweet edible fluff around the seeds. They're tasty & sweet but definitely have nothing on ice cream 😂

I doubt any of the 84 seedlings will ever reach maturity & produce pods. I'll be coppicing them regularly to keep them small. They're really just support plants for the fruit trees I'll be planting with them.
