I find this section terribly difficult to fill out. Good often feels not good enough. So, I'll list some things and edit it over time. Maybe it'll get better. - avid gardener, morning person, lover of good food and drink, outside is the best, good conversation and friendship are immeasurable, reading is underrated, aspire to the noble position of farmer or shepherd, life long dreamer, local is the way.

Im Pretty sure most problems in our culture and the way of our time can be accounted for by this: we have a void which should be filled by men of God, men of character and resolve who are willing to do the hard things, the right things, to show up and lead by example, to put others before themselves. These men say no to evil, its temptations for comfort and slothfulness, grift and indulgence. Where are these men? Where are the watchers on the wall? They're long dead, asleep, scared and nowhere to be found. And so darkness moves unfettrerd into the land, into homes, into our ways of life. Let us be men of resolve. Men of character and men who stand together. Let us raise sons in the light of the sun and equip them with the tools and the love needed to be the men the world needs. One step at a time. One life at a time. Day by day. This is how the world changes. It changes when we care and we act.

Calling all producers! How do you like to take btc payments for your products? Do you use btc pay server, zaprite, square, etc.? Curious what your experience has been and what you recommend for best integration. I want to be able to accept btc for our locally raised meat products and land services and am going to make that pretty apparent on our site, but would like it to be smooth user experience if possible. #producers #btc #nostr #farmer #business #v4v #local #payments #questions

Been a minute since I posted. Hope everyone has had some good winter time and holiday time with friends and family. We are in the thick of starting up our pastured poultry and lamb business. Website development is its own beast lol. Its been fun to see it come together though. I'm excited to lean into the local food and business movement. It pretty much seems more and more important each day. Real skills, know your neighbor. Local systems of production and community reliance. 2026 will be our first year trying to participate in that in an entrepreneurial way. Cheers!

Cat viewing old wallet: Utterly disapproves. What filth! Cat viewing new #leathermint wallet: ahhh finally something worthy of my presence. Cats aside, I absolutely love my new wallet. It’s amazing. Best wallet I’ve ever owned by far. Cannot decide if I enjoy looking at it more or holding it and feeling the leather under my fingers. New paradigm here. Thank you @Leathermint #nostr#bitcoin#artisan#GN#art#cats#zaps#love#handmade

GM Nostr. If I haven’t responded to posts, etc. this week - the fam has been down and out with a stomach bug the last 8 or so days. It’s been rough. Happy to report most are doing better and BTC is marking new ATHs. Glad for digestive wellness and the orange coin. Lol

Who out there is spearheading producing good food (think regenerative agriculture) and ideally part of a local economy and selling valuable product and/or food for sats? I’m really interested in this, specifically on the small business scale. Would love to connect, learn from and talk to anyone who’s doing this already. Feels like there is huge opportunity for us with nostr, btc and small makers/producers BUT need to figure out how to connect to/find the end customers. Bridge the gap. Anyway been a bit since I posted, so here we go😅 Also thoughts on leveraging something like maple ai for your small business endeavors. @Marty Bent has talked a lot about this in his recent publications and on RHR. I’m definitely intrigued and looking to hear more from others and their experiences using ai and btc for their small business. Cheers

“I seem to have been born with with an aptitude for a way of life that was doomed, although I did not understand that at the time. Free of any intuition of its doom, I delighted in it, and learned all I could about it.” -A Native Hill, by W.B. This sung to my soul when I read it. I couldn’t put a finger on the feeling or word to it until reading this. This is how I felt for a long while about my love of gardening and agriculture, local and community movements…like there was no place for me or for that in the America i was born into. It was outmoded and just a shell of what it once was. In the last few years I’ve had more hope for us in these arenas. I think there is a bit of revitalization and renewal happening all over in small and unspoken ways not seen in media, but seen and heard by the people throughout the land. I think bitcoin and nostr are part of this as well. Later down the page he speaks of how this knowledge came to him in a short window and shaped him in powerful ways and I can’t help but think a similar thing is happening to all of us right now with bitcoin, nostr, our culture, food at large, etc. a mighty change is afoot image

Just started reading Wendell Berry’s “the art of the common place”. So far-it’s as good or better than all the recommendations I received lead me to think it would be. This speaks to my soul. Perhaps his words will speak to yours as well. Thanks, Wendell. #nostr #gm #books #wisdom #life #nature #bitcoin #plebchain What other hashtags could I add lol?

gm nostr. Let’s talk plants. It’s springtime and I’m working on the cottage garden aesthetic at my abode, as well as the veg garden. What’s your favorite plant in the garden (can be for food or for beauty. Could be Both).? #garden #spring #flowers #grow #nostr #homestead

Stay humble and stack sats. It’s funny and also awesome how something as simple and straightforward as this can bring you so much peace. #nostr #plebchain #stacksats
