It's been a month since the last Homesteaders and Preppers on steemit list, and in that time we've now reached 230 members.
That's not quite the 250 I was hoping for but the extra 25 people is still a monthly growth rate of over 10% - that's not too shabby!
While some homesteaders and preppers have gone dark over the past few weeks, others have sprung into life to take their place.
And I do think the quality of the posts and comments from the homesteaders and preppers that are still active is getting better all the time.
There is still strong networking going on amongst the community both online in steemit and the various Slack and Discord channels - and also offline. I heard only this evening of two members of the homesteading community who had met up today at a poultry swap in the US north west. An egg-cellent result 😎
For my part the big news is that I will shortly be launching a radio show on MSP Waves Radio.
The show will be on Thursdays 8pm - 10pm UTC (9pm - 11pm UK time).
It is going to be called Pennsif's (Alternative) Lifestyle Show and will be covering a whole range of topics including :
- homesteading
- prepping
- homeschooling
- tiny houses
- complimentary medicine
- alternative energy
- cooking, particularly low meat, vegetarian and vegan
- permaculture and organic gardening
I've already found a couple of people who are keen to help with the show - @geordieprepper and @rakkasan84 - but I am still looking for more. I am particularly keen to find more people to come on the show as guests - it will be a great way to promote yourself and the projects you are involved with. Post a comment below if you are interested.
Here is the latest list of homesteaders and preppers. My apologies if I have missed anyone from the list that has already contacted me - just post in the comments again. Or if you know anyone else who should be on the list let me know.
Note - the first date shown is the month/year of joining steemit; the second date shown on some of the entries is when they were added to the list.
