Gm Nostr. Not much to say about geopolitics right now except this: air raid and capture of a sitting communist dictator? Feels like a Call of Duty mission just happened in real life. Pretty badass. Usurpation of national sovereignty? Arguable. Is it objectively better that it happened to a corrupt communist? 100%

Today’s New Year stroll through the farm, the tulips are really bulking up now. Every passing day with a little more sunlight will speed them up just a bit more #tulips #flowers #farmstr

The only sad part of New Years is taking down the Christmas tree. It’s like the joy of the holidays abruptly end

Blessed to complete another year on this earth. God rewards the faithful. Avanti

GN Nostr. The only farm pics I have lately are the hellebores and ranunculus so if they’re getting old, too bad, it’ll continue for the foreseeable future #hellebores #flowers #farmstr

Here is another one of our hellebore varieties, Pippa’s Purple, from the Frostkiss series. One of our best producers, she has beautiful freckles inside the petals, and is one of the first bloomers of our winter season. We’re hoping to be cutting by late January! #hellebores #flowers #farmstr #agriculture

The pup is on farm patrol today #dogs #flowers #farmstr #ranunculus

I love the whole reject fiat food toxic sludge vibe here on Nostr, but I don’t know if I could ever give up In-N-Out. Just being vulnerable here

Merry Christmas to all. We are grateful to be able to grow beautiful things for people and follow our passion for flowers, even despite the challenges. Keeping faith in God and putting in more than we receive are two things we will try to remember in 2026. Looking forward to what the New Year will bring, the future looks bright #merrychristmas #happybirthdayJesus

Expectations can be the enemy of our tranquility in life #lifetips

Happy Christmas Eve Nostr. It’s a beautiful day

The carnations are still producing blooms despite the short days and rainy weather, not enough to sell but enough to take home for the kitchen table. Carnations are nostalgic for us, a classic flower, once grown by many American farmers decades ago, now grown by very few due to cheaper imports from Columbia and Ecuador primarily. Maybe when we have an international neutral reserve asset like #bitcoin American farmers can grow these wonderful flowers for profit again. I’m happy to keep some going on our farm.

A happy winter solstice day, a day as farmers we look forward to, meaning the days are getting longer again so our growing season is on its way, gradually then suddenly. Hmm, sounds familiar…

Just sent sats to a @Geyser fund to the other side of the globe. Over the Lightning Network it cost 1 sat, a fraction of a penny, got there instantly, and required no permission from a banker or government bureaucrat. #bitcoin is changing the world

Snapped a quick photo of our assistant farm manager evaluating our ranunculus crop #ranunculus #flowers #farmstr #farming

Apparently using plastic on my farm has a few people on #nostr a little butthurt. I will apologize to no one for our practices, hate all you want. Using plastic mulch helps us avoid using chemicals, it gives us better quality for our customers, and frees up our time for other work. If you want to hate on someone, try Monsanto before dissing a small farm producing for its local market. I guess even bitcoiners and freedom lovers can be petty unfortunately. That’s the end of my rant for the day

Some days it feels like no progress is made, and then you see a picture like this and see how far the plants have come. Onward to 2026. Looking forward to a great crop this spring #flowers #ranunculus #farmstr #spring
