Harvest of an old #maple tree.
We’ve sugared this tree (for syrup) for a few years but it’s never given much in the way of sap. It’s estimated to have been around 60-75 years and has now lived past its prime. It was overhanging a section of neglected, overgrown land that we have been re-clearing with the intention of creating a silvopasture for livestock and various fruit trees.
The harvest of this old tree will provide at least a cord of top quality firewood and the ramial branches will then be chipped into the surrounding land as organic matter, high in nutrients and an effective promoter of the growth of soil fungi – both reducing soil compaction and adding a long-term source of fertility.
In addition to providing heat for our home (about a month’s worth of wood), it will enrich the ground it once towered over for many years, benefiting future production and future harvests on this land.
Many people mistake #permaculture, #regenerative agriculture, and #sustainability to be about protecting nature at all costs. But rather we should be thinking holistically how to support the various systems and strive to create overall healthier, more productive and diverse environments where the land is gradually improved *through* working it, producing on it, and creating from it – rather than simply extracting from it.
While conventional #farming is aimed at extracting value from a single piece of land, regenerative farming is focused on using the whole of the land to implement a wide multitude of systems which all work together to potentate each other.
We harvest firewood, forage mushrooms, produce wood chips when clearing brush or cleaning blowdowns, we use leaf litter to create compost in the gardens. All of these facets are integral to helping the various ecological systems work together to produce a *larger net gain* than simply tilling a field and planting some seeds.

CALLING MY FRENS!
I would ask that you follow nostr:npub12pl4h7pk0svg8ug4mhu7a90hn6nf83eqadd94pccgsafn73s392qpt42wq and that you ask your people to follow it as well.
I started this account for my friend Texas Slim because I knew his crew did not have time to do it themselves. nostr was new (still is) at the time and I was already all in and knew how to work the thing. I told Texas Slim I was doing it for those reasons so he is not in the dark on this.
I have only been posting verbatim what TBI's Twitter account has been so as to respect their marketing etc. but the time is coming when I need to turn the keys over to Slim and his producer, June (the posts are beginning to get questions and I am not about to start answering out of turn).
When I turn those keys over I want to place in their hands a freedom account with at least 1000 followers and a rowdy bunch of activity: replies, reposts, and likes. If I turn over an account full of "meh" then the chances it remains as vibrant as it is (585 followers so far) decreases.
The Beef Initiative is something I have been involved with since Texas Slim published The Harvest of Deception: https://producers.beefinitiative.com/blog/the-harvest-of-deception He was the first person I called a friend after I moved to Canyon, Texas and that friendship solidified my passion for soil, ranching, land management and my sense of the sheer Glory of God's Creation.
If you are reading this then hit the Follow button: nostr:npub12pl4h7pk0svg8ug4mhu7a90hn6nf83eqadd94pccgsafn73s392qpt42wq, and make a post asking others to do the same. It don't cost ya nothin'.
Let's build this thing into a major nostr property that the TBI will be proud to take possession of, continue to steward, and help propel the nostr community into the future.
Can I get help from nostr:npub1el3mgvtdjpfntdkwq446pmprpdv85v6rs85zh7dq9gvy7tgx37xs2kl27r (Hellthread Queen -- you know what to do), nostr:npub1qny3tkh0acurzla8x3zy4nhrjz5zd8l9sy9jys09umwng00manysew95gx, nostr:npub1guh5grefa7vkay4ps6udxg8lrqxg2kgr3qh9n4gduxut64nfxq0q9y6hjy, nostr:npub1cjw49ftnxene9wdxujz3tp7zspp0kf862cjud4nm3j2usag6eg2smwj2rh, nostr:npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn, nostr:npub1rtlqca8r6auyaw5n5h3l5422dm4sry5dzfee4696fqe8s6qgudks7djtfs, nostr:npub10chlkc62tk7yr5m9qjc2u7rs3ufhhrq8yukeey0c5lysqkp2gumq93mnex, nostr:npub1xy54p83r6wnpyhs52xjeztd7qyyeu9ghymz8v66yu8kt3jzx75rqhf3urc, nostr:npub1key55ax33gkl50uqemvl4khrtqrhzm7wzpc7fhseutt5ddkcwcrqgxlt3h, nostr:npub1xtscya34g58tk0z605fvr788k263gsu6cy9x0mhnm87echrgufzsevkk5s, nostr:npub1hu3hdctm5nkzd8gslnyedfr5ddz3z547jqcl5j88g4fame2jd08qh6h8nh, nostr:npub1sg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q0uf63m, nostr:npub1z4m7gkva6yxgvdyclc7zp0vz4ta0s2d9jh8g83w03tp5vdf3kzdsxana6p, nostr:npub1lrnvvs6z78s9yjqxxr38uyqkmn34lsaxznnqgd877j4z2qej3j5s09qnw5, nostr:npub17u5dneh8qjp43ecfxr6u5e9sjamsmxyuekrg2nlxrrk6nj9rsyrqywt4tp, nostr:npub180cvv07tjdrrgpa0j7j7tmnyl2yr6yr7l8j4s3evf6u64th6gkwsyjh6w6, nostr:npub18ams6ewn5aj2n3wt2qawzglx9mr4nzksxhvrdc4gzrecw7n5tvjqctp424, nostr:npub1dergggklka99wwrs92yz8wdjs952h2ux2ha2ed598ngwu9w7a6fsh9xzpc, nostr:npub1kyeml3tma4su8yw5aru48wgxclchp8zr3kguwhakmtmegjw40zws82sfjk, nostr:npub1aeh2zw4elewy5682lxc6xnlqzjnxksq303gwu2npfaxd49vmde6qcq4nwx, nostr:npub1gcxzte5zlkncx26j68ez60fzkvtkm9e0vrwdcvsjakxf9mu9qewqlfnj5z, nostr:npub1l2vyh47mk2p0qlsku7hg0vn29faehy9hy34ygaclpn66ukqp3afqutajft, nostr:npub12262qa4uhw7u8gdwlgmntqtv7aye8vdcmvszkqwgs0zchel6mz7s6cgrkj nostr:npub1az9xj85cmxv8e9j9y80lvqp97crsqdu2fpu3srwthd99qfu9qsgstam8y8, nostr:npub1ewe0qgak4gykym236t6w4x06jyuw4q8v040lmn5lamude434yqcsz7uqlw, nostr:npub1f5pre6wl6ad87vr4hr5wppqq30sh58m4p33mthnjreh03qadcajs7gwt3z, nostr:npub1t0nyg64g5vwprva52wlcmt7fkdr07v5dr7s35raq9g0xgc0k4xcsedjgqv, nostr:npub1h4lrzqnrne72xj00yl3zzr0k6qn93cqe5g4vvkfechs6mn89mwyqfa2jcm, nostr:npub12u423pq5c6c5gvyzlekk5u9s5ksnyd27yemuvu3l9gpqpcnx545s6f8pyh, nostr:npub1cf3zeytdnwgwzz5pk2ax0vvmmlzad03xcft4d50ejrfhsh8pxcdsefx7gk, nostr:npub135x4y8w7jty24ggvxfm0c4mqaknk2su0fzzmwrgfdfylj6tz3l9qlv5xpr, nostr:npub18678fyrar7fg7gy77ggwsuk2cqe74ull38ng2v5x63werc63a70qw02kgq, nostr:npub1k7vkcxp7qdkly7qzj3dcpw7u3v9lt9cmvcs6s6ln26wrxggh7p7su3c04l, nostr:npub1s5yq6wadwrxde4lhfs56gn64hwzuhnfa6r9mj476r5s4hkunzgzqrs6q7z, nostr:npub1a2cww4kn9wqte4ry70vyfwqyqvpswksna27rtxd8vty6c74era8sdcw83a, nostr:npub1cj8znuztfqkvq89pl8hceph0svvvqk0qay6nydgk9uyq7fhpfsgsqwrz4u, nostr:npub15879mltlln6k8jy32k6xvagmtqx3zhsndchcey8gjyectwldk88sq5kv0n

#grownostr #plebchain #permaculture
Hashtags like #plebchain or #grownostr (grow in the sense of growing Nostr, not only plants :P) were very popular in the past, give it a try!
To catch some garden folks, I think #homesteading or #permaculture are also good!
And I am currently growing a relay, it’s still very little used, but If you feel like a „green soul“ you can join on greensoul.space 💚
I decided to make it paid, to prevent spam, take a look if it’s worth it for you (to also post notes on the relay. Not only watching it) 😊
And unfortunately I can’t see how your notes look like on amethyst, I am using damus. When I check your page, there is just a giveaway reposted on your main page.
I’d probably share some documentation with a normally shared note, idk for your potatoes for example, and put everything new about the potatoes under it as replies? I think Nostr could also make it possible to transfer the stuff you share on discord, automatically on nostr. But therefore a little tech knowledge would be useful. Just an idea! & Nostr will probably make it possible to create a client for especially such documentations!
I was documenting some or most of my gardenwork during the season with pictures and wrote something about it that day, or a day after and shared it here. For the onions I searched the note when I planted them and shared with a new note my harvest 😊
