I am so happy to see this! And I really appreciate your insight into uplifting the IMAGE... that is so important as you say to raise the energy of the whole shebang and take it out of the dark lol! Happy for you and happy to see where it takes you guys. Please keep us updated.
And don't forget to tell @pennsif that you are now accepting Steem as he charts that all over the world!!
You're the real deal, gal!! <3 much love ~~ Resteemed.
Hooray! Indeed @pennsif, I don't intend to limit it at all! I can't wait to put STEEM and SBD on the sign!!! I haven't created the sign for our booth yet... I am trying to brainstorm on that one.
Love hearing that you will be accepting cryptocurrencies for your CSA and farmers market! It's "the wave of the future". I posted a reply above talking about a tool that is out for mobile download called Steempay which might be something you could look into for a mobile on the spot exchange of steem. The developer is @kodaxx and is a steemit member.
Anyway, please update us how it goes! If I had some sort of good or service to sell, I would try to use steem for it. The more people selling who take crypto, the more people will buy with crypto, which will grow the real world crypto economy. { : thanks for the motivational post.
Great!
I envision a future where people are going around with their phones, purchasing everything with Steem, everybody is on Steemit, the buyer transfers Steem from her Steemit account to the seller´s Steemit account, in about 3 seconds the seller sees the funds in her account and hands over the merchandise. Later on the buyer writes some feedback about the quality of the product, while the farmer has some special recipes for his product on his blog, maybe sends a link to the buyer with the purchase.
That´s how we take back the economy from the banksters, cut out the middleman, enhance and rehumanize our shopping and selling experience to what it was like before, markets were an event, also entertainment and meeting point.
That´s also how I envision a merger between technology and ecology. People producing very high vibration, quality organic food, raised with tender loving care, using blockchain and crypto to get the word out, get connected with customers and other producers, get the transactions done, networking, growing, thriving, and saving the fucking planet in the process 😎
In the beginning, since most people are still earning in fiat, prices might need to be calculated on the base of the exchange rate to fiat, but later on, this might not be necessary any longer.
I also would like to encourage you to become a steemit and Steem ambassador at your farm and your market stall, get people to sign up to steemit, maybe give them a carrot if they do 😉, then do those transactions as described above with them.
If you look at blocktivity.info you can see that Steem is already number one in terms of number of transactions done, doing all those transactions at 0.14% capacity, so there is room for many more transactions, while Bitcoin is struggling sometimes with its capacity at 100 % plus high fees, while Steem has no fees.
If you have customers with some VP, they could even pay with upvotes, at least a part of their purchase.
Then you just need a way to combat the built-in inflation of Steem of about 10% per year, maybe via some additional upvotes, like coupons but not for the buyer but for the seller.
Also get other farmers to follow your example, establish a "light net" as opposed to the darknet associated with crypto.
With your lotus you´re already on the right track, though later on I would use an image of the vegetable and fruit abundance of your market stall.
Wow, this could already have become an article and made me some Steem! 😉
So go forth and multiply! 😎
@likedeeler wow I think I m going to save this thoughtful and informative comment to refer back to later. We have been telling our friends and our customers and our social media followers about Steem and will continue to do so. I love your vision. This is exactly what I am talking about. Those numbers about STEEM and BTC are quite telling! We use the same large blackboard as our market sign every year and this year it is getting an overhaul! Brainstorming on what to have displayed weekly on the sign with our farm name, and Steemit address, etc. Very exciting!!
Thanks for being the tip of the spear on this new wave revolution. I have considered accepting crypto in payment for books from my bookstore. I don't quite know how to set that up, but I am going to figure that out soon. Thanks for the inspiration.
There is an app that is able to be downloaded on android, I believe also desktop and iphones, which is called Steempay. It has been created by a Steemit user @kodaxx. It is a mobile steemit specific wallet where you can quickly and easily transfer steem, I believe soon sbd as well, to and from other steemit accounts. This would be a helpful tool for you to possibly be able to sell quickly. They would have to be steemit members though. But you could possibly incentivize people to join steemit with coupons or giveaways, or something, so they could pay you for goods with steem that way.
Wow thanks for the inspiration, thinking of how I can offer goods for crypto too! Also working to get my eco-village organic farming family in Jamaica using crypto too.
I am of opinion that cryptocurrency are going to change the life of many homesteaders, farmers and gardeners. Even if bankers and elites ban it, there is going to be sustainable future with it.
you are so cool
this is so cool

Awwww, thanks lady!!! The inspiration flows like water and no dam can stop this crypto river!!!
This is great news @schoonercreek. Are you accepting steem and SBD as well for payment?
I will add you to the next addition of Businesses accepting payment in Steem.
Hooray! Indeed @pennsif, I don't intend to limit it at all! I can't wait to put STEEM and SBD on the sign!!! I haven't created the sign for our booth yet... I am trying to brainstorm on that one.
That's great. I look forward to hearing about your first steem sale.
If you would like to come on my Alternative Lifestyle Radio Show sometime to talk about this and other things you do, please do let me know.
oooh ooh @schoonercreek, do it if you are able, we did and it was really fun!
It was great having you on the show @mountainjewel.
Looking forward to another mandolin tune or two sometime soon.
Thanks @pennsif! Sounds great! Tell me more!

That's a great vision. It would be awesome to see exactly this happen is a dream I think is a likely possibility in the near future.
Yes, I think so too.

Thank you so much for that. I will be looking into the app very soon...
Thank you! Best of luck! Jerry Banfield has a YouTube video about accounting and taxes with crypto that might be helpful!
Wow thanks for the inspiration, thinking of how I can offer goods for crypto too! Also working to get my eco-village organic farming family in Jamaica using crypto too.
Very good! Thank you for stopping by!
Nice! I'm interested to hear how this works for you long term! :)
Thanks I will keep all of you Steemians posted!
This is a great idea! I'm going to have to think of a way for me to implement something similar thank you!
Great! Check out the Exodus App, that my customer recommended, I know I will be! Best of luck!
