My small rural school that graduates 25-35 kids each year had drive your tractor to school today. Now if these youngins can find the way to farm how their great grandpa's did it, they can start a transition back to sustainability. @nunyabidness @beefinitiative @npub1qny…95gx How does the movement start to educate the youth with this much invested in conventional equipment.? https://image.nostr.build/978d7c598a4dba2760d6dcdb28334c398d7c44bad73717d7a96f5067b223bf81.jpg https://image.nostr.build/6e2215669502329c08185a6b69512c9fbc2ba163d869001ca6a6b85cf3cb4ed6.jpg npub172mu27r5yny0nnmvgjqwhx055dmsesrrx7j0p5d3pxagfx6xgxfsv75p3q Mapletrade Was going to clean taps, but the mapletrade family getting ready for total eclipse.

The Canada syrup cartel. I am not sure if it's true, but was told by 2 different Canadians, that they can't make syrup like me. They can for home use and giveaways, but if you want to sell, it's regulated. Any Canadians, whom Ohio shares a border with. Please comment and help set the record straight. #maplesyrup #Canada #grownostr npub172mu27r5yny0nnmvgjqwhx055dmsesrrx7j0p5d3pxagfx6xgxfsv75p3q Mapletrade 5 a m in Ohio on a Saturday. Pulling taps and gathering buckets to be picked up later. Track meet today so I had to do early work. luckily as a teacher, 28 yrs ago, I got my bus license to help my small rural school, and my kids school hired me to drive the track meets, so I get to watch my 9th and 10th grader boys run and get paid for it. These extra jobs I pick up get turned to sats. #bitcoin #hardwork #grownostr #homesteading https://m.primal.net/HpkN.jpg npub172mu27r5yny0nnmvgjqwhx055dmsesrrx7j0p5d3pxagfx6xgxfsv75p3q Mapletrade Looks great.

I turn buckets upside-down so small amounts of sap don't drop in and then sour/mold before I collect and clean them. I collected almost 7000 gallons of sap in buckets and bags this year. a bucket will fill in about 8 hours when sap is running. #grownostr #permaculture #circulareconomy #foodstr https://m.primal.net/Hopq.jpg https://m.primal.net/Hopp.jpg npub172mu27r5yny0nnmvgjqwhx055dmsesrrx7j0p5d3pxagfx6xgxfsv75p3q Mapletrade I don't see them tapping maple trees. https://m.primal.net/Hopo.jpg npub172mu27r5yny0nnmvgjqwhx055dmsesrrx7j0p5d3pxagfx6xgxfsv75p3q Mapletrade My nostr followers are catching up, and should surpass my twitter followers in the next month. 4 yrs vs 1 year.

She said look for an online soap calculator that has lye type, fat type, and additives like essential oils. npub172mu27r5yny0nnmvgjqwhx055dmsesrrx7j0p5d3pxagfx6xgxfsv75p3q Mapletrade https://image.nostr.build/945167fca9f40a5a8f54487a7b0c5bdaa2a898abe2888f66635dfedf4cb3fbb7.jpg https://image.nostr.build/cccd509d63580a773b4b59c4eacdadfa0b63d3282597a80534a77814b6fb7c90.jpg GM nostr. Proof of work for my sats for syrup. 5 a.m. in Ohio here and I just got fire going.. Had a great sap run and have to boil as much as possible today on my wood fired homemade evaporator. Cutting wood also today while I boil because I'm running low. Believe it or not the maple syrup industry is also commercialized. Tubing in woods, blending syrups, natural gas or fuel oil burners, pressure filters with diatomaceous earth, and if you ever see "spicy syrup" or "bourbon aged syrup" it's cause they take their worst syrup and add a strong flavor to it and market it. I'm old school and still boil outside over wood. Each 5-10 gallon batch has its own unique characteristics. Message me if interested, prices in my profile and I prefer BTC. #permaculture #grownostr #foodstr #bitcoin npub172mu27r5yny0nnmvgjqwhx055dmsesrrx7j0p5d3pxagfx6xgxfsv75p3q Mapletrade I'll check with Sarah to see if she ran into this in her learning phase. npub172mu27r5yny0nnmvgjqwhx055dmsesrrx7j0p5d3pxagfx6xgxfsv75p3q Mapletrade As the shipments start landing.

Enjoy and share. npub172mu27r5yny0nnmvgjqwhx055dmsesrrx7j0p5d3pxagfx6xgxfsv75p3q Mapletrade And all this started a couple years ago.

I hear BG and think BGSU, Bowling Green, Ohio npub172mu27r5yny0nnmvgjqwhx055dmsesrrx7j0p5d3pxagfx6xgxfsv75p3q Mapletrade Many people in small communities around the US that do farmers markets are bitcoiners and don't know it. I only sold maple syrup for cash for obvious reasons, as many farmers markets do. I had no ambition to compete with the 2 families of large maple producers in my area that helped me get started with advice, and lending me old equipment. I wanted to sell outside our area online. But no cash option. As I researched bitcoin became the answer, I can share my farmers market good around the US. And I believe in bitcoin more than cash now. I am just a hobbyist but made 100 gallons of syrup from 5000 gallons of sap. I can't wait to see the nostr farmers market in a few years. npub172mu27r5yny0nnmvgjqwhx055dmsesrrx7j0p5d3pxagfx6xgxfsv75p3q Mapletrade we just had it this morning npub172mu27r5yny0nnmvgjqwhx055dmsesrrx7j0p5d3pxagfx6xgxfsv75p3q Mapletrade Also, have a niche product that people may want. My NONKYC stack is slowly growing since I sold my first bottle of my hobby maple syrup on twitter 2 yrs ago, my nostr sales are outpacing X this year. I also talked my sister to sell some of her handmade tallow soap for BTC last year. https://image.nostr.build/3aa2bf96077da0c011551653a48b967ebb035208d18884001403ae5737287be4.jpg npub172mu27r5yny0nnmvgjqwhx055dmsesrrx7j0p5d3pxagfx6xgxfsv75p3q Mapletrade GM, my family has issues. I eat pancakes 3 or 4 times a year. Wife, 2 kids and I had them this morning. The cup was full when we started.

We don't have a BTC website payment yet so if it quits working you can contact me for a BTC payment. npub172mu27r5yny0nnmvgjqwhx055dmsesrrx7j0p5d3pxagfx6xgxfsv75p3q Mapletrade I use muun and Alby for now.

My sister and I are both hobbyist, and our sales were about 1/2 online for bitcoin last year and 1/2 at local farmers markets. We are not industrial, so they are modest sales, but the vision of an online farmers market is unbelievable. #nevent1q…qjzl npub172mu27r5yny0nnmvgjqwhx055dmsesrrx7j0p5d3pxagfx6xgxfsv75p3q Mapletrade first post from primal.

Big issue is the shipping cost. Let me know where you are. And how much you may want.. and I'll look up shipping to let you know.. My best fit box for international will actually fit 3 quarts. Getting between 1-3 quarts would work. npub172mu27r5yny0nnmvgjqwhx055dmsesrrx7j0p5d3pxagfx6xgxfsv75p3q Mapletrade This year I am trying to send out in glass if you ask. It's a little more expensive for the jars and extra shipping. The syrup is the same and oh so good. #nevent1q…lk63 npub172mu27r5yny0nnmvgjqwhx055dmsesrrx7j0p5d3pxagfx6xgxfsv75p3q Mapletrade Looks like the mailman was running with it. npub172mu27r5yny0nnmvgjqwhx055dmsesrrx7j0p5d3pxagfx6xgxfsv75p3q Mapletrade It may not be a lifetime supply after you taste it. Coffee, make homemade granola, drizzle on sweet potatoes or squash, put on ice cream, in milk, on oatmeal, glazed ham, and waffles/pancakes/French toast npub172mu27r5yny0nnmvgjqwhx055dmsesrrx7j0p5d3pxagfx6xgxfsv75p3q Mapletrade Good lord. That takes me back to the Seneca County Fair in Ohio, in early 80's when they would set up an arcade and I would take my quarters to play tempest and Joust. npub172mu27r5yny0nnmvgjqwhx055dmsesrrx7j0p5d3pxagfx6xgxfsv75p3q Mapletrade Speaking of bourbon, my brother in law makes an Old Fashion, using maple syrup instead of simple syrup. npub172mu27r5yny0nnmvgjqwhx055dmsesrrx7j0p5d3pxagfx6xgxfsv75p3q Mapletrade Check out my Sister Sarah's soaps as heard on @npub1vwy…zugd podcast Bitcoin And.... Her site is here to look over. https://sarahs-soap.square.site/ BUT contact me by message to buy it with Bitcoin. I can get you a little discount when not using the site directly. @npub1swe…ns6h we need a great computer mind to make the awesome Bitcoin Farmers Market. npub172mu27r5yny0nnmvgjqwhx055dmsesrrx7j0p5d3pxagfx6xgxfsv75p3q Mapletrade I hear people ask what the Circle P ,(pleb) is that @npub1vwy…zugd mentions. It is based on the Circle K, a convenience store from Bill and Ted's Excellent Ad enture, for you youngins.. It is a group of people that have contacted @npub1vwy…zugd, or who he has noticed that sell interesting or niche items for bitcoin. If items sell then the vendors then send value back to the Bitcoin And...... podcast. npub172mu27r5yny0nnmvgjqwhx055dmsesrrx7j0p5d3pxagfx6xgxfsv75p3q Mapletrade And so true. The batch boiling without blending like commercial sugarmakers in Vermont and Canada gives me distinct flavors through the season. I am at 3 district flavors this year. Add to that the terrior of Ohio and my maple grove. Ohio once had vast maple forest until settling and farming. npub172mu27r5yny0nnmvgjqwhx055dmsesrrx7j0p5d3pxagfx6xgxfsv75p3q Mapletrade Wow. This made me go inside and have a spoonful of syrup. My syrup comes in batches and I don't blend like the big boys. I believe this came from batch 2 and was an Amber. 1st batch was light and vanilla, 4th is dark and heavy maple. I get mostly amber. You speak so well of it you must have a background in English or marketing. Much better than I explain it. People: how would you describe your maple syrup.

Here is my homemade evaporator in NW Ohio. It's a great hobby. I lost my helpers to basketball and indoor track. I'm tired this year. I do buckets and bags (homemade pvc holder on bag) and I like the Fiskars @npub1swe…ns6h at 52 yrs old this is my first year with a log splitter(got a free one) I was struggling to keep up with maple and heating house. This is my 3rd year of selling for btc, I was about 1/2 and 1/2 of online twitter/nostr sales and local farmers markets. Can't wait until an official online BTC farmers market with 2-300 vendors all in one place. https://image.nostr.build/37b83b58e80a7b56e04214b778b5964b41aec8e2b4c09aef9dda02940370fc81.jpg https://image.nostr.build/8b41f21c194c5f32112ac88f3f9c243d361dd63d200df55b2329c814b68baf67.jpg https://image.nostr.build/b08670c1f0198696772efbde434beb08f9fe7af1c25ac6dad6319795fe0caa94.jpg npub172mu27r5yny0nnmvgjqwhx055dmsesrrx7j0p5d3pxagfx6xgxfsv75p3q Mapletrade OR- use something like strike where you pay with fiat but it comes to merchant in bitcoin. Or have a stack just for spending. I haven't spent bitcoin but I have now bartered with 8 bitcoin vendors. npub172mu27r5yny0nnmvgjqwhx055dmsesrrx7j0p5d3pxagfx6xgxfsv75p3q Mapletrade If you find the right person or niche. I have been selling my homemade maple syrup for bitcoin for the 3rd year. I always did cash, i wanted to expand online but with all the centralized payments I shyed away.. Then I found bitcoin and it became my online ramp to sell, and now I stack it. I sold out 100 gallons of syrup from end of season(April) to August.. Try it and you won't be disappointed.

Thanks npub172mu27r5yny0nnmvgjqwhx055dmsesrrx7j0p5d3pxagfx6xgxfsv75p3q Mapletrade Yep early season light. As season goes on and gets a little warmer, bacteria convert sucrose to glucose and glucose browns more when heated(malliard rxn) I get majority amber/dark at my hobby operation. 1 son and mother in law love the light stuff. Up in Vermont they often sell it for more. npub172mu27r5yny0nnmvgjqwhx055dmsesrrx7j0p5d3pxagfx6xgxfsv75p3q Mapletrade Whoops forgot the link to maple grades https://www.maplesource.com/grades-usage-rates/ npub172mu27r5yny0nnmvgjqwhx055dmsesrrx7j0p5d3pxagfx6xgxfsv75p3q Mapletrade And my first syrup is done. 1st gather/boil, I pulled a couple gallon last night. Left is new, right is what I got most of last year. I'll only get 3-5 gal. of really light syrup.

Very labor intensive. I learned from an old timer that made syrup into his late 80's, you don't always have to boil hard. I boil hard when I am home and watching. I smolder and steam when I am sleeping or at work. Here is 4:45 this morning when I got up. The sap level went down a couple inches in pan, and tank level went down 1/3. All told about 50 gallons water boiled off while I slept. I can shut evaporator down pretty tight and am showing the coals I'm left with in morning. I can do this through the day also. https://image.nostr.build/69020ef502311767aae0dd0e28b11c59a89e624534c0294ddc3ea82f292b33aa.jpg#m=image%2Fjpeg&dim=1080x1920&blurhash=%5D6A%5EOI8%7BD%25bH9F00%7Eqt800%252MxoIIU-%3BIUxVRPoLs.x%5D0KDi%3Fbt8R*%3FHM%7B9Ft7-%3B%25MxujvROMx9a-%3BofM%7CjE.8WXxaaJRk&x=0c1728dc85ce0ad1ee56ddc66ceeb4d2d02085e5aa21bcd1617e3f299eb0dff8 https://image.nostr.build/8c3a755e4061ae3c06cc0990c2d8c8616d00d7fa742d249e752b380e542e26b3.jpg#m=image%2Fjpeg&dim=1080x1920&blurhash=%5DNCEwakCIVWBRkr%3FWVoLbGjZ0gWB%252ofxZOXoKayaybH%7D%40ofIoWBNHnjayj%5BkBay9aWBxuofs%3AbHfkWBe.kC%25LofRQWUR*&x=e0afc092edf714b66837ab990e5cbfbd51dba2250c63e408f2eac11d1de70688 npub172mu27r5yny0nnmvgjqwhx055dmsesrrx7j0p5d3pxagfx6xgxfsv75p3q Mapletrade Just wanted to see if it worked for me. npub172mu27r5yny0nnmvgjqwhx055dmsesrrx7j0p5d3pxagfx6xgxfsv75p3q Mapletrade If someone can zap me a few sats I'll zap them back to see if strike works for me for zaps. npub172mu27r5yny0nnmvgjqwhx055dmsesrrx7j0p5d3pxagfx6xgxfsv75p3q Mapletrade Yep I didn't know that one. npub172mu27r5yny0nnmvgjqwhx055dmsesrrx7j0p5d3pxagfx6xgxfsv75p3q Mapletrade I can use strike to send zaps, but if I create a lightning address to receive zaps it has a countdown saying invoice is only good for so long. Am I missing something? npub172mu27r5yny0nnmvgjqwhx055dmsesrrx7j0p5d3pxagfx6xgxfsv75p3q Mapletrade Looking for information. I had Wallet of Satoshi for zaps on Amethyst.

I tried Alby but they are invitation only right now so I put in a request.

Sugar maple is about 45 gal sap per gallon. So big leaf maybe closer to the walnut amount. I tapped 50 walnut trees to get that because they don't give as much sap either. npub172mu27r5yny0nnmvgjqwhx055dmsesrrx7j0p5d3pxagfx6xgxfsv75p3q Mapletrade Long couple weeks.
