welcome to steemit.

I love worms!!!! Ha, hi, what a silly thing to greet someone with. but really, if you love worms, you're okay in my book. This is the third time I have heard of Tao this week - what's up with that place?? I'm going to have to investigate....

Welcome to steemit! xx

Haha. Yep tellin' it like it is my friend :) Taos is pretty great. Just a little town, tucked away in the desert, and admittedly isolated from the rest of the world :). "Desert" is a relative term. This is High Desert, and it is actually quite green here. It snows alot in the winter and we have world famous skiing, and people also come here in the summer because it is so beautiful and temperate. There is a culture here that dates back thousands of years, the Taos Pueblo Indian, or Tewa, Or Red Willow people. I will write about my experience working with them at some point. There is also a Hispanic culture here that dates back many generations, somewhere around 500 years. So many people consider a trip to Taos like traveling back in time in a lot of ways. It is a warm and friendly place and I would really recommend taking a trip up here if you ever get a chance!

And Natalie Goldberg, whose quotes and work I share often here on Steem lives there! ;) I'm DEFINITELY gonna have to check out Taos!

yeah to worms I'm with you both on this one xx

Nice fingerpicking there! Who are your favourite players?

Oh man! So many. Blind Blake, Papa Charlie Jackson, Johnny St. Cyr, Eddie Lang, Lonnie Johnson to name a few. Love the old stuff. Thanks, glad you liked it!

Absolutely, would love listening to more! I have been into fingerstyle for a couple of years, still working on the technique and trying to emulate my idols, Chet Atkins and Tommy Emmanuel first :)

Chet Atkins is Amazing

It's thanks to him if we have modern fingerstyle after all.. His "boom-chick" is legendary!

Holy moly am jealous of your farm!

We only have green house while yours is massive 😊

Well, welcome then, altho you've been here for a bit

Cheers,

Thanks so much!! I built the green house myself on a very small budget because I needed it very badly to make my farm a reality. One of these days I'll write a post on how it was built. I think it could be built again in about a week with the proper know how and all the supplies ready.

great farming work you have going on nice dreams you have done well so far so good. Years back a buddy and I looked into doing an earthworm farm to sell the compost and sell the breed the earthworms to sell for fishing. I see you don’t have a Steemit Profile Picture I made a contest post on the bottom it will teach you, then after you make yours feel free to enter the contest to create mine. https://steemit.com/contest/@isteemithard/design-isteemithard-a-profile-picture-avatar-contest-17-winner-of-16

Thanks man! I want to expand my worm composting operation when I get the TIME. :) I will check your contest out!

Hi! Welcome!

Welcome to Steemit, enjoy the community and have fun! =) Upvoted.

Blessings,

I play guitar and eat from my gardens. Worms do help. Nice to meet you.

Hello Nick! Good blog and good communication. I myself have a small agriculture. I live on another continent. I like your work.
An interesting idea with the spread of earthworms. I did not know that this could bring so much benefit.
Good luck in your business!

Thank you! I would highly recommend you check out the book "Teeming with Microbes" by Jeff Lowenfels and Wayne Lewis as well as youtube content by "David C. Johnson Ph. D." and the "Johnson Su Bioreactor" to learn more about earthworms and their ability to restore soils and increase yields. I appreciate the support!

Hi Nick, you seem pretty cool. :) How long have you played to guitar for?

About ten years. I played for a long time on the streets of New Orleans w/ a band and that helped me to develop my sound a lot. Now I just play to keep myself happy and sane. Haha. Thanks for the feedback! I appreciate it :)

That's cool! :) Keep doing what you do, people like you that put your heart into things you love makes the world a little brighter :)

Thanks that means a lot to me :) I am glad to be a part of a community who are supportive and inspiring.
