Last Notes npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young Thank you, we live in a beautiful place and put a lot of work into the layout of this garden. Our business is called Nelson OMG, the OMG stands for Organic Market Garden but we also want to people to say Oh My God when they see it npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young There are nowhere near as many pest bugs in Australia as in the USA for whatever reason. I have found that keeping a very clean garden and mulching with compost keeps most bugs away. We have a species called Cabbage Moth which like to eat all brassica's so we use insect netting over all of those crops. It equates to a 20% shade cloth. We kangaroos and rabbits everywhere here which require the equivalent of deer fencing with smaller gauge fencing at the bottom for the rabbits. Koalas can climb over and come through but they don't eat vegetables. npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young Thank you, I have to take one day at a time at the moment its all I can do npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young A carpenter is also called a "Chippy" probably gives just as many red flags npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young He deserves the gallows npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young Thank you npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young A Sparky (that's what we call Electricians in Australia) npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young Thank you npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young Thank you. I have been playing around with Twitter but really don't get any positive interactions on there. I was having a good time on Flote before that imploded, Nostr is far better than both Twitter and Flote. npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young Thanks Matthew, I am hoping this garden is very photogenic and that we can eventually do a lot of farm tours. We are in southern Australia so are currently in Autumn/Fall. As we are in Australia and on the coast we get almost zero frost and have a moderate climate so can grow all year. npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young Thank you. The soil here is mostly sand and organic matter. Its full of worms already and yes things are growing really well. We ate our first baby spinach last night, beetroots will be next npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young Thank you npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young So much better, we now live on the edge of a small fishing village surrounded by a Tea Tree forest, 1 km from a river, 3 km from the ocean. People here are friendly and supportive of what we are trying to do. Essentially the exact opposite of the last 6 years of our lives npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young To be honest it has been brutal. Prayers are always appreciated and I do believe the worst is behind me now npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young It has been almost a year since I lasted posted on Nostr. Essentially my life turned upside down, we closed our market garden in Rainbow, moved 4 hours away to the coast and listed our home and vacant land for sale. We are now in the process of setting up our second market garden, this time in a area where people actually care about good food and health. It has been a depressing journey for the last 12 months but the light in shining through again.

Firstly, they are a small family business in regional VIC. They make and sell great quality whole-food products at affordable prices. I have been taking their Beef Organ capsules (liver, heart and kidneys), Green Machine capsules (moringa, turmeric, Kakadu plum, chlorella, black pepper), Turkey Tail and Reishi Mushroom (separate) capsules. After 10 years of experimenting with expensive supplements and vitamins to manage my MS, swallowing entire handfuls of tablets and capsules a day (at one point I was taking an average of 20!!), I’ve managed to narrow things right down to 3 capsules in the morning and one at night from Rainbow OMG - and this is the best I’ve ever felt since being diagnosed! My need for ‘bed’ days are nearly entirely gone, save for the nights when something out of my control disturbs my sleep and I can’t fall back into it easily. This means that I have practically defeated fatigue: my main and most problematic MS symptom! This is huge for me! I still have the need for adaptogenic herbs (ashwagandha, maca) on occasion, or if I feel like I’m coming down with something I’ll take Nigella Seed oil and raw garlic cloves, oh and I still take magnesium before bed to help relax my body. But that’s it! I no longer need to regularly spend hundreds of dollars on things that may or may not be working and I no longer need to give my trust and money to big corporations who often add fillers to their supplements, making them inferior and less effective, meaning you need more and more, while they sell them at a premium. If you’re struggling with health or sleep or even just want to supplement your not-so-ideal diet with some whole, natural goodness, don’t give your money to the corporations who don’t know your name. Go to Rainbow OMG and they will look after you! Eat The Rainbow! ✊❤️" npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young Are you going to link them together or put them in different places npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young We use the cages from IBC tanks. I cut one wall off with an angle grinder then you load them up. It looks very neat npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young I spent some time this week pruning this small, heritage variety orchard in the town I live in. Pruning has mostly been done by volunteers in the past and it showed. I have restored shape and airflow to all of them and would love to get them to mulch underneath with woodchips before Summer. #grownostr #growyourown #permaculture https://void.cat/d/5zy8zsA5KChq6Kft81rMqS.webp npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young Too funny 😉 https://void.cat/d/XMZQB7WKgp3iQ4eBE6piUZ.webp npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young If only more people called out bad cops like this, we would live in a much freer world.

This was a Fig Tree and Quince Tree intertwined and choking each other out. The client asked me to prune them as they had not been pruned for years. Normally I would not take off so much but these trees really needed a hard reset. #grownostr #growyourown https://void.cat/d/JfhqokF5pbMxtJt2CnJZGz.webp https://void.cat/d/REstHbepKQc4YRav1CA8JP.webp npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young This is the first home brew I have made this year and I am trying something new a "Beetroot Pale Ale" I think it will be delicious, the beetroot powder is home made. #grownostr #homebrew https://void.cat/d/MRwJuLA4sgCJ7fJQ26zsfS.webp https://void.cat/d/CLoTCRars4gs2QZrj1RjEf.webp npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young Venison is still delicious 😃 npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young "NASA went to the moon with computers that had less computational power than the phone your pocket" I used to believe in Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy as well. If you think this flimsy, poorly built, piece of garbage/shit was able to navigate the "vacuum" of space and then "land" on the Moon, you have some reflection to do about those in power and the reality that we occupy.

You have to go on your own discovery journey to find out more, it's too big of a lie to undo quickly. Took me about 5 years of looking at it to come to a real conclusion npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young This is the story of my life and part of why I have social anxiety. Every time I speak the truth I am labelled a retard.

I took a brocolli all the way through our Summer doing that. If you keep cutting them off they keep sending out more. npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young All the high end work boots are really comfortable.

The same thing goes for Cucumbers and Zucchini vines npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young Do you cut off the leaves below the flowers/fruit? npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young How do you prune your Tomatoes? npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young We had a huge day yesterday. It is a Root week in the Lunar Calendar so planted all of our garlic and onions for the year as well as this months beetroots. That equates to 600 onion transplants, 200 beetroot transplants as well as over 1200 garlic bulbs, all now in the ground. 2000 transplants in one day with a baby and 6 year old complaining the whole time 😄 #grownostr #growyourown #permaculture #regenerativeagriculture https://void.cat/d/M4Jqx7zJTx5MZJnPQEMoXK.webp npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young What diseases are you dealing with? npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young If you have lost your sense of smell then you were poisoned and need to detox your body.

Some people find flat pack assembling difficult, I find it very easy. As someone who doesn't like to talk, instructions without words are easy for me to follow as I have always learned by quietly watching others then trying by myself later.

We do our tomatoes at 30-40 cm, but we use the tomatoe hook trellis system so they are tall and heavily pruned. I'd love to get into flowers eventually as well. npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young While I would never say I had a wonderful time in the very extended Lockdowns we had to endure, I certainly did not waste any time while we were in them. Our market garden was built with sweat equity and repurposed garbage. Your compost system sounds great except for the woodchips, they will take far longer than everything else to transmute into compost. I would use them in the very bottom of your pile to allow airflow from underneath. Azomite and Green sand are both great mineral and magnetic amendments for your soil too, the raised bed looks great. You really don't need a huge garden to cater for one household npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young Compared to other plants that is spacing them out. Beetroots are 10-15cm between rows, Bok Choi 20 cm or less npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young Sort of, its a shadehouse in Summer. This one is made from Polypipe and what we call Star Pickets (T-Posts?). Ram the posts in and the right sized Polypipe simply slides over the posts. This frame only has to hold 30% shade cloth for 6 months of the year so doesn't need to be strong, it bears no weight. Our main Greenhouse is a 15 metre long polytunnel, that is the Australian version of the Farmer's Friend Caterpillar Tunnels. https://www.farmersfriend.com/p/classic-caterpillar-tunnel That frame is all metal and has cross bracing so can hold the weight of trellised tomatoes, cucumbers etc. #grownostr #growyourown #permaculture #marketgarden #rainbowomg #eattherainbow #regenerativeagriculture npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young Here is the bed from the other day fully composted, raked flat, rows marked and planted with Celery 30 cm spacings.

These "Blemmy" Beetroots as we call them will be used in our Rainbow Salad mix (shredded carrot, beetroot and celery in a container) or dehydrated and turned into a powder to add to yoghurt or as an ingrediet in out Gardenkraut ferments. We are a tiny operation so we value add as much as we have time for. This particular bed used to be a driveway, all I did to it prior to planting was broadfork it to break compaction. Next it will be flame weeded, broadforked again, top dressed with 400 Litres of compost then transplanted with 100 Butterhead Lettuce. https://void.cat/d/37PQmLb2PqWTWdruydjiG3.webp https://void.cat/d/Lnudwffrj6QT2bX2hTU33y.webp https://void.cat/d/9eKkH1449BuE5KXgZyA7fF.webp #grownostr #growyourown #permaculture #marketgarden #rainbowomg #eattherainbow #regenerativeagriculture npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young Most of these will still work, you might have to use more than one seed to compensate for germination % decrease over time. Onion seeds are useless after 1 year so don't bother with any old onion seeds. npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young Shoe Goo was my best friend as a Skateboarder. We covered our new shoes with it to stop the grip tape from shredding the fabric. npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young Compost is a critical element in any Regenerative Agriculture system. In our farm it is they key driver of fertility and we use the no dig approach of applying all amendments to the soil surface allowing "gravity" and worms to incorporate them into the soil. We currently have two composting systems, one is our Chicken Run which is a deep litter system and the other is piles made from horse manure and weeds from the gardens. The chicken powered compost is much higher quality and is pictured below. This is 400 Litres of sifted compost applied to a 10 x 0.75 m market bed. This is the first compost this bed has received, next time it will get 200-300 Litres. The bed was broadforked to deeply aerate before the compost was applied to the top and we planted this bed with 2 rows of celery. Celery likes fertility and water. We are currently lightly planting our beds as compared with other similar market gardens as our soils were biological dead when we started so we are going easy on the soil for now. https://void.cat/d/M5f5ScAMZEiNU26L129j6H.webp #rainbowomg #eattherainbow #growyourown #grownostr #regenerativeagriculture #compost #celery npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young The Veggie Van Has Landed See our Weekly Post for this week's available organic vegetables, silver colloid, herbal supplements and probiotic ferments https://rainbowomg.com/?p=1303. All our supplements, skin salves and non-perishable items are available worldwide and yes we accept Bitcoin/Lightning. Some of our readers may be unaware that we launched our business while all of Victoria was in Lockdown for COVID in 2021. We had to pivot from having a public open day to launch our business to offering home delivery only as we were not allowed near anyone. Even after Lockdown’s were lifted for most people we were locked out of almost all social settings and community groups, forced to keep reaching out to people in the only way we had available, online. Now that almost all government imposed restrictions around COVID have been lifted we are finally in a position to pivot again and will soon have a public facing shopfront for locals and tourists alike. Enter the Veggie Van! This beautiful old caravan pictured above will live across the road from our Farm in Rigg St, Rainbow. It will be open for business Fridays and Saturdays (hours to be determined) and will have a phone number to call for times when the Van is closed. We are making ourselves more available in order to service locals who don’t use computers much and the large amount of caravan traffic that drives through Rainbow every day. https://void.cat/d/2JTaLu6o5VRigu8VqgX8BW.webp #grownostr #rainbowomg #eattherainbow #eatlocal #growyourown #naturalhealth #organic #regenerativeagriculture #permaculture #biodynamic #rainbowvictoria #jeparitvictoria #dimboolavictoria #horshamvictoria npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young https://void.cat/d/K6WfjvBn8dzoagiSVWZXVZ.webp npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young My Farmacy www.rainbowomg.com https://void.cat/d/4RBo9BRz7AV11Ki3VJCWwq.webp npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young Yes there are 99 heads per bed 33 x 3. Depending on the time of year they take 50-60 days to mature. All of our veg is sold within 1 hours drive of our town essentially. We have a local bakery that buys this lettuce to put in all their salads. Everyone who buys this lettuce says it is the best they have ever eaten, we get the same feedback about our Spinach as well. Actually we get that feedback about almost everything we sell. npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young Thank you, it feels like we are finally going places with this business after 3 years of toil with almost no support npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young One of the few benefits of growing in town is the lack of animal pressure. We only have to keep rabbits out of our garden where we live. Kangaroos are the equivalent to deer in Australia and they eat everything too 😉 npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young It's 8:25 pm here in the future npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young These are Butterhead Lettuce which have proven to like our hot climate. They are very attractive and delicious, I can grow them year round here which is excellent for cash flow npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young Yesterday marked a huge occasion for us. We purchased an old caravan that will soon be the shopfront for our Market Garden. We will now be able to serve the huge amount of tourists that drive right be the end of our road daily. 2023 is the breakout year for Rainbow OMG. @npub1czn…r8xv and I are thrilled. #grownostr #australia #growyourown #entrepreneur #marketgarden #permaculture https://void.cat/d/CfZys7MQHeKEPTzPiFe91e.webp https://void.cat/d/RuefxzDbYoTnQe7oWQKw25.webp https://void.cat/d/9R4k19815nEjuXnHeUUtSQ.webp npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young Follow my wife, I stuffed up her initial account so follow her here @npub1czn…r8xv #grownostr #yoga #permaculture #growyourown npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young This Lettuce bed was about to be swallowed by Oxalis and required a meticulous hand weeding yesterday.

We live in a town called Rainbow npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young It is but the other end of the scale is extreme heat and UV. Personally I like hot weather but not everyone does npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young We just cut ours down for WInter npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young I am so glad we don't have pipes freeze here.

I have pleasantly woken up to a a decent amount of extra sats in my wallet. I am yet to figure out how I can see incoming transactions? I would like know who is Zapping me if possible? I am using Snort on Desktop and Amethyst on Android for reference? I am loving Nostr is really does feel like what Flote was trying to do. #grownostr #zaps #australia npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young Well there you go, that makes perfect sense. Cheers for the input, I am fairly new at this Market Gardening caper npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young They look like a fungus. I am familiar with this doctor, he used Bi-Carb Soda to treat cancer tumours. Personally I made Black Salve to treat my own cancer.

This is such a cool concept, the owner is very active on Twitter, a really cool guy npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young The best advice I can give you is to have faith that our bodies know what they are doing. The man's job in a birth is mostly to keep her going and not give it. npub1eppsssy4essequ5qanpw3rjw9fssfwkg7rkwq8f6ra82jjjxgydqrn8zl5 Evan Young I plan on getting one when I living above the poverty layer again
