Good morning! Anyone up for some cute pigs from the South!?! These little guys should do the trick for you. They are a couple of weeks old now and loving the access to grass between meals with mama. This was from a couple of days ago right after a move to some fresh pasture. #grownostr #hogstr #homesteading #permaculture #georgia

#grownostr #bees #homesteading Time to take a break for a few minutes and enjoy this wonderful walk through the life of a bee. enjoy!

#grownostr #eggs #chickens #homesteading We parted with 10 dozen eggs today to a few different families! what a great way to end the weekend.

hey #plebster friends, I have a question about lightning nodes. I have an extra Odroid H2-x86 and a Rasberry Pi 4 laying around not doing anything at the moment. would those be able to run a #btc #lightning node? is it worth it to run your own? I have a good solid background in Linux, Kubernetes and tech things, so if it is difficult, it wouldn't bother me. just wondering if it is worth exploring. BTW, I didn't use the right tags the first time, still learning where everyone hangs out :-)

#grownostr #freedom Does anyone have any advice for a good email list provider? I started using AWeber with the free service (still getting my feet under me) and they managed to quietly suspend my account. I only found out after I couldn't get any test emails to work, even to myself. My website is over at

Backporch Farmstead – Bringing bees, regenerative agriculture and ethically-raised animals to the South

- I do have a BUYER BEWARE notice, maybe that is too much freedom :-) I am freedom minded and am using a custom domain with Protonmail. I don't know if this is what got me banned, but maybe it played a part. I asked AWeber to share with me how I got blocked, don't know if they will get back with me or not. Ideally, I'd like to use an email service starting on a free plan and build my audience up. I'd like to integrate with Wordpress if possible too, but could make that optional. Any good alternatives?

We had a double rainbow last night - both ends! It was absolutely beautiful. #grownostr #nature

#grownostr #homesteading #spring #zap us if you like #bees or honey! bees, wonderful bees. this was a few weeks ago, but I'd thought I would share some advice about beekeeping. the bees don't read the books! it was early March here in Georgia, mornings were still cool, the box the swarm found was not good, but they went there anyway! If only they read the books, the bees would have known to wait until it warmed up and I put out a bait hive for them :-)

#grownostr #pigs #homesteading #realfood Now this is how things eventually turn out with the pigs from the backyard. We save up enough for the family and clear all of the ribs out of the freezer for their travel to the smoker and the dinner plate. Not the biggest ribs, but certainly the best :-)

#grownostr #homesteading #fencing Fence question for everyone- what do y’all recommend for sealing the tops or all of the posts? Building out the perimeter fence and want to make sure it stands a long time.

I seem to have lost a bunch of follows, I wonder if a nostr Relay has gone offline? still learning where and how all the data flows. #grownostr #tsp

This time a pile of #pigs. Hard to resist this cute of a bacon seed. #grownostr #homesteading #georgia

#grownostr #pigs #homesteading #farmsteading how about feeding time? all lined up nicely for a warm meal 😀 If anyone is curious, we do intend to sell some of these as either IPP breeders or feeders 🥓. At least one of them is spoken for so far. Hit me up if you or someone you know is interested. We are down in #Georgia.

#grownostr #pigs #permaculture Another dose of little pigs for the day. I couldn't help but share the smile that this brings 😀

#grownostr #pigs #IPP #Georgia 7 new little Idaho Pasture Pigs today! woohoo. 5 boys and 2 girls this time around.
