Alright #plebchain I am looking for fellow homesteaders, book readers, analog lifestyle enjoyers, tallow appreciators and unacceptable fringe members to 🤝 and 🥂 on nostr. I’m not super interested in talking about nostr or even bitcoin (😮) because for me it’s a settled fact of life that I stack sats. Where are my frens? Who is making weekendy plans to do homesteadish things? Anyone down for making some soap on nostr? Maybe pressure can some Yukon golds for hash browns on Sundays?

There has to be a purple place to chat about important matters like which varieties of tomatoes for this year; Solar freezer backups etc.

Sounds like someone I can align with. Hi new friend!!

Well hello. 🤝☺️

Hello new friend 💜tell me more about what you are growing? 🍀🌱

I am located in Ontario, so I’m only just starting to think about the upcoming growing season and getting some seeds started. Right now it’s still very snowy here. I decided this year I will grow way more of fewer things. Last year I tried too many things and many things failed. I know what is easy for me to grow (and preserve) so going to keep it simple this year! Tomatoes (cherry, heirloom coloured varieties) green beans, culinary herbs, butternut squash, lettuces, a few melons, pumpkins. I’ll rely on my perennial collection to fill in: asparagus, strawberries, raspberries, blackberries, and I have an orchard that is too young to fruit yet but getting there 🤞🏻 I am building a collection of perennial medicinal herbs as well. From seed, so it takes some time but hopefully will have an amazing tool chest in future. Then I have hens and beef cattle. Thinking of getting a Jersey for milk; waiting till things “out there” get really bad for that because it’s a huge commitment so means we’re largely not going anywhere.

Do you grow a garden?

Good grief. I am not sure why that posted several times. Sorry 😣

Aha no worries!! Network glitch probably

Wow that’s awesome. Wish I had enough space for cattle. I’m in Southern California and have silkie chickens. Currently growing collard greens, mugwort, Thai chili, okinawa spinach, planning to start some seedlings soon too with all the rain that we’ve been getting. 🌱✨
