Here is the video to watch;

@anomadsoul you gotta bring this farm girl to Steemfest for reals!

not just is she genuine and awesome and so easy on the dtube eyes....she's the girl next door big heart Steemian supporter that every community needs, she's the glue that hold our collective upvote seeking hearts together .........meaning for every 9,999 Steemians we so need 1 like @llfarms aka Justine ....so the only reason we don't hae 10 Million active posters yet is because we don't have 10,000 Justineques Steemians

and as they say...like attracts like, bring her there and watcher her multiple her hearts to 10K others!

Wow! I seriously don’t even know how to respond to this.. this is incredibly kind.. thank you so much @dj123 ❤️

I love being a part of the COM community, you guys are so stinking hilarious.. but more than that you are a true community helping to support each other with giggles along the way. You all have blown me away with your fundraising efforts and make me feel so at home.

Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️

I've known Justine from almost since I started blogging here and I can tell you she is one of the best and more passionate curators around this place , she is also a very sweet person and human being and is always there to lend a hand to anyone around. Not only for the work she does for @curie and @c-squared. Also, one of the reasons the @helpie project was able to lift off the ground was in great part because of her , she was ( and still is ) from day 1 one of the core members of the team, we are so happy to have her around as her opinion is always taken very seriously. And of course , she likes cake as much as I do .. hahaha ! Do yourselves a favor and take her along !

Oh piggy, you always know just what to say to make me all weak in the knees 😜

Thank you, really.. thank you. We have been on this journey together from pretty much the beginning, and our friendship is one I will always cherish. Your huge heart is evident to all around you and I can’t thank you enough for always being a pillar of support for me. You are an incredible human being and I’m lucky to have you as my fellow cake loving friend. ❤️

Seriously though.. when are we having a cake meet up???

The cake meet up will happen someday ;) .. I'm going to practice my pancake throwing skills for that occasion .. Thank you for your sweet words Justine , I also cherish this friendship from the times I chatted with a bee avatar at discord :D and it's almost been a year since then , lots of cake convos! time sure flies ! yay for unexpected journeys and yay for LL at Steemfest !

This gal — this gorgeous powerhouse of a woman — is such an obvious force for good on this platform. Not only does she work tirelessly behind-the-scenes to ensure others are recognized and celebrated, but she does so with such humility and grace, never seeking praise or acknowledgement for her efforts.

Though my engagement leans further into content creation than curation, I’ve often felt that Justine and I are kindred spirits — that we share something of a similar appreciation for our fellow humans.

While a part of me regrets not participating in this contest, I’m bolstered by the idea of Justine being there as a brilliant representative. I can think of few people more deserving.... 💜

😭 Thank you for such unbelievably kind words Zippy ❤️

I agree, I think we both have this love for people which makes us not only connect to them but want to uplift them. You are a beautiful soul dear and I’m so lucky to have you as a friend.

Also, thanks for calling me out on the redirecting... I forget I do that lol. 🤗

llfarms is one of my favourite persons on Steemit, because she is so warm and fun and brave and giving, in short she is a beautiful person inwardly and now after I watched the video, I can say, also outwardly lol. I love your long hair lele <3.

I don't need to say that her blog is awesome, do I? I mean, check it out yourself if you haven't, because it's pretty obvious XD.

However, she's not only a great poster on Steemit. She's also an awesome curie curator, hard at work everyday looking for undiscovered gem and talent AND she is a great mentor to a lot of aspiring curators, guiding us and giving us plenty of advice and encouragement whenever we need it. I can assure you that this mentorship is pretty full on, as she has to review a lot of our suggestions.

I have seen her in many discord channels, and not only she is nice to everyone, she has the strength to be honest and brave also. She speaks her mind freely, even when she disagrees with whales. I have witnessed her trying to pacify two powerful Steemians and she bravely charged through in between them because she believes they are both good people.

I feel that Steemfest wouldn't be the same if lele is not there. She is really a star quality Steemian and I wish more people would be able to know her so they can treasure her presence in this platform because we absolutely need people like her to stick around.

Please help lele save the world go to Steemfest <3.

Oh my goodness @scrawly, thank you so so much!! Your kind words just made my week, you are so amazing and caring. Thank you for your support and encouragement. I really enjoy mentoring and being able to work together to make sure authors get the recognition they deserve. More than that though, I enjoy the individuals I get to know on a personal level.. like yourself. The friendships built from that are worth more than anything else to me.

Oh brave or stupid not sure which.. I forget people witnessed that 🙈 I can see that people are passionate about this place and that passion mixed with frustration boils over at times. I figure, it only shows how much they care.

To be perfectly honest with you, the comments here and support I’ve received feels like I won something even more valuable than this prize could offer and that to me is what really matters. Thank you for being a part of that. ❤️

As she says, she hates talking about herself, so allow me to do it for her. Umm, where should I start.

I first met her in our Curie Curation Links channel on the Curie Discord server. It was a bit of a training ground for us to find new Curie Curators. In there we could give them feedback on posts and help them learn what it takes to become part of Curie. It was clear to me almost immediately that she'd be an amazing curator for Curie. It was a big plus that she was already a part of the Helpie community, but really she was a natural. As such, I recommended her to become part of Curie soon after.

Since joining Curie in March she has ascended to the upper levels of the community. She quickly became a Top Curator, as well as one of the top mentors. She has personally been responsible for submitting over 200 post that have received a Curie upvote in her six months with Curie. It would take me too long to figure out how many others she has been indirectly responsible for through mentoring, and giving advice to many other curators who have come to trust her opinions.

She, two other Curie Top Curators, and I created c-squared a little over three months ago. It is a broader curation project focused on curating a larger portion of the blockchain populous. It can get some attention and upvotes to many posts that won't fit within the Curie guidelines.

She is the perfect spokesperson for curation on the platform. Without curation everything on the blockchain would fall apart. She works tirelessly on curation, and as she and many others have said, she is passionate about it. While at SteemFest she will be doing a great presentation on all facets of curation. Hopefully it will lead to more people realizing just how important it is, and share in her passion.

I know all the other contestants have a great reason for going, but I think it you really look at all of the reasons @llfarms is going you will see she is extremely deserving of the support of this contest - and of the many comments I have already read here.

In closing - did I mention she has also become a great friend in the past six months, and is an amazing person in general - I suspect that has been the case for much longer than six months.

Thanks for reading my ramblings,
@randomwanderings (Gene)

Oh Gene, you are such an amazing mentor and friend.. I’m so lucky to have you. 🤗

Of course you come in here all numbers and business, I didn’t even know the number of posts I’ve submitted lol.. thank you! So thankful you saw something in me that led you to help me start my curator journey, it’s been an absolute blast.

I’m excited for our continued journey helping to improve the platform in anyway we can and just being able to support each other through it all. Thank you so so much for your constant support and encouragement, it means the world to me. ❤️❤️❤️

btw.. that ummmm did not go unnoticed 😜

Curie, c-squared (and to a certain degree, Helpie); I am involved in all of them with Justine and I couldn't think of anyone more deserving to go to Steemfest. She represents not only these communities but what I believe to be the best way forward for the blockchain as a whole. Her outlook on what needs to be done to make Steem a top 10 cryptocurrency in terms of community building is spot on. This girl needs to be at steemfest.

Thank you Mark, that means a lot coming from you! Thanks for the constant support and letting me run my crazy ideas by you as well. Look forward to working together on some of those things and little by little, making this place a bit better. 🤗

@llfarms embodies what an ideal steemian should be, so her presence is absolutely crucial at SteemFest because she will bring her beautiful spirit, and her talents, and her humour, and her personality, and maybe her baking goodies too...!

She's just absolutely gorgeous. Down to earth, energetic, full with love <3 She mentors and guides others and are always so open and approachable. She promotes quality contents and she makes you feel like you matter in her world :)

An amazing woman, an absolute gem of a friend, and a power curator * ___ *

I think, at the heart of it, lele (my nick name for her) (XD) understands the zeitgeist of what would lift a blogging platform to success levels. That is, her focus on people and her passion for community building!

She is also wonder woman! (Just look at her) (Sorry, lele, I outted your secret identity!!!!)

Make wonders! Bring her to Steemfest \o/

Oh my spidey 😭... you are an amazing human being... and you’ve made me cry, in a totally good way. To say your words touched the deepest parts of my heart would be the under statement of the century... I’m speechless and blown away. THANK YOU❤️❤️❤️

Thank you so much. You are such a force to be reckoned with on this platform; you’re talented, community focused and you have such a passion for people and uplifting them.. you are so special. We need more people like you here and I’m so glad we’ve been able to work together to make sure those authors don’t go undiscovered. I’m excited to see the things we can accomplish in the future and am so thankful to have your support and encouragement.. thank you

She deserves it :-)

There's others who deserve it as well, but she is simply one of them and I loved that very true video. I appreciate the sincerity she portrays and can't wait to sit with her in a corner at SteemFest observing people for the first few hours before we come out of our shells :')

Oh thank you!!! I’m so excited about that too!! So funny.. when I read your SteemFest posts I feel ya and totally can relate.. I immediately felt thankful for someone to chat in a corner with, while we help each other come out of those shells. I feel the festival is really going to be one of those experiences that stays with you forever, and it’s because of the amazing people going like yourself. I so look forward to getting to know you and am so thankful for these incredibly kind words.. thank you ❤️

I really enjoyed your 2 videos for that contest. I also really enjoyed hearing you on the radio the other day. I hope to see you at SteemFest!

Teamsteem you know you are one of the nicest people on this platform right? I’ve had a blast hanging out with you at msp from time to time.. and you’re insane generosity does not go unnoticed. You’ve got such a big heart and I’m thrilled to be able to meet you in Poland. Thanks so much for the support ❤️❤️❤️

hey girl!!!! I look forward to meeting you too =) I love that you are passionate about curation and quality on this platform, we definitely have that in common! =) Good luck with everything!!!
