A day in the life of ..,
So the learning doesn't stop just because life takes a left turn ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜‚. The sun hasn't been up for a few days now so the Solar isn't charged up enough to pump water to the nursery... But, we have a contingency plan..... Until the pump decides not to work ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜‚. TIA at its finest.. That's why we have biogas plan in the works as well, aaaand wind turbine too for later. ... That workshop build is really pushing itself up the to do list...

in a pinch, you might be able to use a rope on that end bell sticking out. Those retractable hand cranks can be a tinkering nightmare. Be careful not to over tighten because they can bind easy. What is the minimum gallons per hour you need to maintain?

@Edwin Bomani very nice
Sunday musings
So here's what you are actually helping to build guys..... ๐ŸŸ Catfish ponds + hatchery โ†’ nutrient water โ†’ gardens & duckweed/Azolla ๐ŸŒฑ Gardens + orchards โ†’ residues โ†’ BSF larvae + worms + animals ๐Ÿชฑ Worm farm โ†’ vermicompost + liquid fertiliser ๐Ÿ” Chickens | ๐Ÿ goats | ๐Ÿ– pigs โ†’ manure โ†’ biogas digesters ๐Ÿ”ฅ Biogas โ†’ cooking + backup power ๐ŸŒฑ Biogas slurry + worm tea โ†’ crops + orchards ๐ŸŒณ Orchards โ†’ food + feed + income ๐Ÿ›– Restaurant + Retreat waste โ†’ BSF + worms + biogas โšก Solar + ๐ŸŒฌ wind โ†’ pumps, cold storage, hatchery, lighting Energy + food + fertility all feeding each other. The fish for me will start everything else off.. Whatever it is you are planning , you have got to get the homework done. Do the difficult stuff UPFRONT .. .. Have those conversations with whomever you want to serve. Decide early on what is going to make you the money to invest into your dream. I am a student of practical knowledge. Take the time to learn from the experts who are crushing it, then TRY IT OUT. ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜‚. Whatever your context, even if you are gushing with cash to invest... Start what I like to call 'dirty trials'... Use as little of your resources as possible but TRY IT OUT. Even the really successful farmers out there mostly all say the same thing. There's a reason they all say that... Just saying... Agro tourism is the future. I absolutely believe that. Especially if you lean on the 'organic and natural ' route we mostly came on here to learn from each other ... Just my Sunday morning reflection musings.... What's been your experience in your niche? As always, share freely guys. I love chatting all things community ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜

@Emil Moldovan I copy and pasted your above text into chatgpt and aske for an infographic. Sometimes have to groom the prompt to get exactly what you are looking for.

Hey gang.. wooow. What a fortnight I have had ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ. Had to pack up the entire house, move majority of stuff into storage,over the boys into a flat, do some minor renovations, paint, fix bits and bobs ...... So yeah. It's been a tad busy and it's left this place pretty sparse unfortunately, my apologies.. We will be getting back to regular settings after next weekend guys. I'm heading back to the overalls to do some major catch ups on the job side of things now, do still "go go go gadget go"( anybody remember that cartoon ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ) Just stopped by to let you all know, all is going according to plan and we will be back to full build settings ASAP.๐Ÿค—๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ’ƒ

Sounds good... all things in its time... key is consistency not constant performance. Stay consistent and true to where your feet are.
