A local bar was so sure that its bartender was the strongest man around that they offered a standing $1,000 bet. The bartender would squeeze a lemon until all the juice ran into a glass, and hand the lemon to a patron. Anyone who could squeeze one more drop of juice out would win the money. Many people had tried over time (weightlifters, longshoremen, etc.) but nobody could do it. One day a scrawny little man came in, wearing thick glasses and a cheap suit, and said in a tiny, squeaky voice, "I'd like to try the bet." After the laughter had died down, the bartender said okay, grabbed a lemon, and squeezed away. Then he handed the wrinkled remains of the rind to the little man. But the crowd's laughter turned to total silence as the man clenched his fist around the lemon and six drops fell into the glass. As the crowd cheered, the bartender paid the $1,000, and asked the little man, "What do you do for a living? Are you a lumberjack, a weightlifter, or what?" The man replied, "I work for the IRS." #grownostr

2k red wigglers, split between two bins. I'll let them settle in for 3-4 days and then feed them again. It's funny how worms cost more than steak by weight. #grownostr #worms #permaculture #compost #homesteading

I rigged up a trellis for the tromboncino squash and found the first one. If it grows well I will save the seed for next year. #grownostr #homesteading #permaculture

Hybrid poplar trees and comfrey one month later. The trees were bigger. The tops were recently ate by deer. #grownostr #permies #permaculture #fodder

Is anybody else having problems with #fountain today? It crashes when I open it. I deleted it and reinstalled it. It will send the email code. When I enter the code, it crashes again

I thought this was dead. I haven't seen it in 2 or maybe 3 years. Apios americana Common Groundnut is a native perennial vine in the legume family and is found in tidal and non-tidal marshes, wet thickets, stream banks and bottomland forests. It has edible fruits and large edible tubers that provide numerous health benefits. Although the fruit and seeds are edible, it is the tuber that is most desirable but the only place it is cultivated as a food crop is in Japan. The vine can grow 8-16 feet long. Native Americans used the tubers extensively for food and taught settlers how to use them. Cooked, mature tubers are similar to a potato but have a nuttier flavor and finer texture. They also have 3 times the protein of potatoes as well as numerous other health benefits. The legume is also edible. #grownostr #permies #permaculture #forage image
