How's everyone doing in the Steem community? My name is Brendan Bowes i'm 32 years old. I have a beautiful wife Lyndsay and 3 boys. We are a family that enjoys hard work and the outdoors. We are currently working on our little homestead/hobby farm and always looking to add and improve the land we reside on.
I absolutely love our chickens!
I am really excited to be a part of this community and look forward to connecting with a lot of people on here. I enjoy music of many genres, art of many styles, sports (pretty much all of them)... I'll stop here since I'm a Gemini and will end up going on forever.
See you around
Brendan
Welcome! gave you a follow!

Good mornig from Spain, thank you @foodisfree and good luck whit your farm any question let me know, if i can help i will do.
Awesome! Where in Spain are you? I was conceived outside Barcelona in Argentona. That's where my godparents lived when they were alive. Great to connect!
Im from the south from Málaga in Andalucia, and you?
Awesome! I'm originally from Austin, TX but now outside Asheville, NC in the US.
Brendan, welcome to Steemit! Love the fact that you're into the homestead/farming. I started doing hydroponic lettuce growth and have a post with some pictures. Let's support each other. I'm following.
Darren that is amazing. I'm sure we'll be very interested in each other's posts as time goes on.
Nice! I had a few small aquaponics systems on my little urban farm in Austin. I don't have them going anymore as my journey has led me to Asheville but they can be so productive! Following ya @darrenrobinson! :)
Likewise!
Welcome to the best social networking platform on the planet - bar none. Looking forward to more pics and stories from the farm and the land. Enjoy your explorations in here ;-) Greetings from the falls over in Niagara ;-)
Hello @steemuwe thanks for saying hello. I'm sure they'll be lots of farm posts between Lyndsay and I haha
Looking forward to them ;-) We almost moved to a huge farm this summer as well - but plans got changed ;-)
Maybe in the future your plans will change again and you can finally get a nice farm
Ecovillage is in the works. Also: Life happens while you're busy making other plans ;-)
Nice, so you're starting an ecovillage or looking to join one? My fiance and I just got some land so excited to plan the homestead. Followed ya, @steemuwe Onward and upward!
Planning to start one with other families. But even the jurisdicion is not carved in stone yet - and a bunch of projects need to be finished up before the next move on it - I'll keep you posted ;-)
Exactly!
Welcome! It is a great community with lots of homesteaders and everything else!
Thank you! So far I love it
@goatgarden I think this is a place where we all can come together to share our experiences as well as learn a lot from each other.

Welcome!
Hello @havok777 thank you for the welcome
Welcome to steemit Brendan I'm also new to steemit, it seems like a great platform with wonderful people, let's support each other I just followed you
Hello @journey2success and welcome
Thank you
Welcome! Nice chick pics. Always good to meet a fellow sports fanatic. What are your teams?
Chell - Leafs and Oilers
MLB - Jays
NFL - Steelers
NBA - Raptors
What are your teams?
Nice. How'd the Steelers make that list? Are they just kinda the closest team to you?
All my teams are from Houston. Texans (NFL), Astros (MLB), and Rockets (NBA). We don't have a pro hockey team, so I have to root for the Dallas Stars. At least they're still in Texas lol.
I'm not sure how the Steelers made the list. I have always liked the Steelers growing up. We don't have any teams in the NFL in Canada so everyone has to pick one.
I don't know how the Stars didn't make the playoffs. They're such a good team they just shit the bed.
I went to Texas 10 years ago. I was down in Galveston bay for a week. It was an amazing trip.
At least you picked a team that seems to have a shot at the post-season every year.
Eh, they have talent, but it was pretty mediocre season. They really couldn't seem to string together a streak.
Awesome to hear you enjoyed your time in Texas! Galveston has gotten even more tourist friendly in the last decade or so. After rebuilding from Hurricane Ike. They even have a miniature Boardwalk and everything.
I've always wanted to visit Canada, but I haven't gotten any father north than Idaho. So close.
Yes well we're going to see what happens this season. Vegas has that new team now which is weird. Texas was awesome for sure. I went to ihop for my first time ever and the waitress spoke mostly Spanish and I don't know Spanish. It turns out I yes to a lot of extra food hahah. She brought me pancakes, waffles, bacon, sausage, eggs, toast, a different waffle thing with ice cream hahahah it was hilarious.
Next time you get that far north you have to cross the border dude.
That breakfast sounds like it made the trip worthwhile by itself. Honestly, I expected to be up North for longer, maybe find the time to make that trip for a vacation, but life called me back to Texas. Hopefully one day...
Hi Brendan. I am a city boy right now but I do wish to have a few acres in the future and a small farm for myself and my family. Post about your experiences here and you'll have my interest! Welcome.
Hello @vachemorte I'm glad we've connected. There will be lots of experiences posted on here.
Awesome to hear about your vision! I grew up in the city too and my first garden led me to starting a small urban teaching farm. Now my lady and I just got some land outside Asheville. I'd love to stay in touch, followed ya @vachemorte. Here's to realizing your vision!
thanks @hendrix22 & @foodisfree (great name btw) what an amazing community. I will definitely have tons of questions for you all when I'm ready to be free... for now I have to deal with corporate customer but I'll change them into chicken at the first opportunity!
Welcome!
