Summer is almost over, and autumn/fall is nearly with us.
The seasons move on and the great posts on steem keep flowing.
If you spot any posts that you think would make the grade for next week's Top Five please do let me know.
So here are my five most excellent posts of the week...
My Five Picks of the Week
RecyclingWithCraft :: Weaving a Basket with Magazines by @marblely
This really is an excellent craft/recycling post. Perfectly presented, excellent idea...
Show Me The Money!! More Free Stuff Found On Curbs To Resell (Including An Electronic Drum Set!) by @steemmatt
I just love reading Steemmatt's posts telling of his latest curbside and thrift store finds, and how he sells them on to earn a good income. A terrific example of earning money and doing good for the planet at the same time...
Filleting Salmon an easy guide, I hope by @alaskahippie
Fish filleting is an essential homesteading skill (unless you are vegan)...
Free Energy Cooking : I Got A Fresnel Lens!! by @phedizzle
I had heard of fresnel lenses but hadn't appreciated their potential for cooking...
Zucchini Relish by @foxyspirit
Everyone always grows too many zucchini (courgettes) - this is a great way to deal with them...
And three that almost made it...
ULOG 065 - Building a new rocket stove & BBQ combo by @quochuy
Vegan Slow Cooker Meals {Pinkeye Bean & Sweet Potato Stew w/ Rainbow Chard} by @plantstoplanks
I am always on the lookout for posts to include in this weekly Sustainability Curation Digest.
I am also always seeking out new guests for The Alternative Lifestyle Show that I host on MSP Waves Radio every Friday.
If you haven't listened to the show before you can hear last week's episode here :
If you are interesting in coming on the show, or if you have suggestions for suitable posts for this digest, feel free to comment below, or contact me on Discord @Pennsif#9921.
I also run a charitable giving project called A Dollar A Day - you can read more about that here :
I am looking for more projects to support with that and I am particularly interested in finding some sustainability / renewables related projects.
The Minnow Support Project has multiple curators that pick five posts from under-valued minnows each week to highlight through MSP3k. This way MSP and PAL can promote new writers and content creators on Steemit, and in effect reward them for doing a superior job.
