I am looking for an individual, a couple, a family, or a group of people who have a homestead, who want assistance with homestead chores, and who prioritize forming deep, authentic connection with people. Experiencing human connection that feels aligned, mutual, and rejuvenating is something that I value most. I seek people who strive to witness, experience, and embrace their inner truth, and share their authenticity and vulnerability with others.  Attuning to my truth and being unconditionally guided by my inner compass are becoming more and more accessible. Connection with me, enhances and amplifies one’s ability to go deeper within, which requires incredible courage and commitment to move toward embracing one’s inner truth.

I yearn to do this vital work with others, develop intimacy as we dive in together, and support each other in this possibly challenging and certainly rewarding process. I seek people who understand the value of revealing their vulnerability, which means exercising transparency when feeling triggered and owning the feelings that come up. This requires being genuinely curious about one’s shadow intentions and motivations. And emotions are powerful guides in this process. It is essential to embrace the full range of emotions and cherish them, and fully feel them when they come up. I desire to connect with people who hold this space for expressing the full range of emotions and potently value such a space held for them. I am creating gravitation for people who desire to do this work earnestly and passionately.

On a practical note, I seek to live somewhere in the contiguous U.S. I have spent the last few years living on homesteads and performing various chores in the realm of gardening, animal husbandry, fence maintenance and repair, and basic low-stakes carpentry. I value doing work by hand or simple tools, and in alignment with the flow of nature. I enjoy listening to sounds of nature and peaceful quiet. I like a neat and clean living space. Working with animals is my biggest passion, I adore chickens and cows. I find chickens to be the most magical animals in existence <3 My diet includes meat, and am noticing the internal conflict that arises from eating beings who I experience an emotional connection with. I do not know how this will evolve going forward, but for now I eat a lot of meat and there’s no plan that suggest that will change.

If you resonate, please purple moosage me.

I can spend hours sitting and looking at trees, grass, and sky and listening to their sounds. I enjoy working with farm animals and spending time with them. I dream of a quiet life together on a remote homestead. I seek a close and intimate bond with just one person. I am attracted to people, I am open about their mix of sex and gender. In terms of my gender, I am currently on a quest to find my own understanding of masculine and feminine. I am not in a hurry and I seek to find something new, something I have not heard before. I am sourcing this from the pure energies where they have not yet manifested in the material. At this point on my journey, I think of myself as a genderless person and I prefer they/them pronouns.

It is vital for my significant other to regard emotions as guides to our internal states, a person who passionately seeks to understand what the emotions are communicating. In all my relationships, I choose to share about emotional experiences as truthfully as possible. In a romantic relationship, that is an absolute must; moreover, my significant other would desire to invite such conversations and share about their inner world as much as I do. I seek to sweep nothing under the rug because I value discussing any and all unpleasant feelings.

I work very closely with my subconscious and require that my significant other does as well. This would need to be at a very significant depth of perceiving and understanding hidden motivations and intentions. Essentially, I seek someone who experiences themselves as having hidden aspects that they want to understand and embrace. And who desires to caretake all their aspects because deeming any of them as unwanted and leaving them out is heartbreaking.

If this moves you to reach out, please email me at otkravennost@proton.me with recent photos, what you resonate with, and what was challenging to be with. I am looking for a thoughtful reply as depth and ability to hold nuance are essential for a connection.

Hello everyone

I am seeking a significant other in the 30-60y/o range who has a homestead somewhere in the contiguous U.S. I am queer, so I am open in terms of sex or gender. I also prefer they/them pronouns. I seek a person who is very serious about developing self-awareness. Someone who has a regular practice to look within and see their truth. Someone who is dedicated to intense processing together when disagreements or conflicts arise. Someone who has experience moving toward one another through conflict and being creative to find solutions that work for both people. Someone who greatly cares about their physical, emotional, and spiritual health.

I do not believe in objectivity, I believe that we all hold valid views and perspectives, and that it is most important to seek to understand the perspective of another. I believe that it is deeply human to have an identity, to have an ego, and to move through the world mostly perceiving in assumptions. I do not think these things can be done away with no matter how much self-work a person does. I believe that developing awareness around these things is possible and allows one to be able to accept the truth of who they are and what is driving them.

I seek a quiet, peaceful life working on the homestead together, with chickens and cows and lots of lush green all around.

Please include recent photos and tell me why you were called to reply to my post, as well as aspects of myself that you may find challenging. I get that it feels unpleasant not to receive a reply, but if I do not get the sense that care and attention was put into the message, I will not reply.

Fascinating conversation =) I love that people are using scythes instead of modern technology!

Why cucumber and tomato in the same pot?

Hi Lillian

So interesting what you shared about the thin shells! I did assume that the only cause was low calcium, but it absolutely makes sense that there are other causes.

After reading that articular gout is the accumulation of uric acid crystals in the joints, I don't think that is what Muffy has. Her masses are not in the joints, they are in the soft tissues of the feet and are movable and not attached to joints.

I do have to say that if it was up to me, I would not give layer pellets. They are processed food and I don't think that's healthy for anyone. I like what you say about diversity and more of a range of plants. Muffy and her flock do have fenced land on which they forage, but what they have access to may not be that nutritionally dense for them. I would love to grow a garden for them so they could forage there. I also find that many chickens I took care of did not eat greens that were picked for them, they only ate the greens that they picked themselves. Not sure what that's about. I assumed that it's the way they eat greens, that the earth holds the plant while they rip little pieces off with their beaks, so when they can't eat the plants like is natural for them, they don't eat.

I do believe that when the chickens' natural tendency to forage is encouraged and the food they are provided is real food that is diverse, they will eat what they need and their food will nourish them and not contribute to issues.

It's possible that Muffy gets too much soldier fly larvae because she is a favorite so she gets extra treats

I am so curious about the relationship between weeds and intended crop. I was watching a garden a couple of months ago that had a bunch of weeds, while I was spending an hour or more each day pulling weeds in a nearby garden. Though we were growing different things, I did wonder if I needed to be doing all that weeding when I would look at how good their crop looked without any weeding. And after a couple of months passed and their garden was overgrown with weeds, their crop still looked good.

I was also reading a post on here, where someone said they let the weeds grow and native plants came in, and after that the predatory insects got established who ate the pest insects. That really got my attention too.
