I have just received another long letter from Michele and she is doing well living off grid on the old homestead and she is happy. She has survived her first winter so that is a plus. She keeps busy repairing things and getting ready to put her spring garden in. And of course with her beloved chickens and her other animals so she is not lonely.
Michele has decided to live off grid a bit longer until March 2014, she will not return home October 2013 as originally planned.
She has ask me to ask her sisters if you have any vegetable or herb seeds you can send her she would appreciate it. She is calling her garden Freedom Garden which is very appropriate I believe.
So, if you wish to share some seeds with Michele or drop her a line email me and I will send you her address.
Thank you farmgirls I know Michele would appreciate any seeds she gets.
Hugs,
Debbie

I received a wonderful letter from Michele today, she was talking about all the work she has done and all she wants to do. I am going to write her back and send her a care package!

Thanks for the good news about Michele. She probably has enough seeds to plant acres and it will take her just as long to be sure they are watered, not to mention the time to prepare for winter.

Thank you all so much, Farmgirl Sisters are Awesome. All of you have made Michele so happy and she is touched that you all care so much about her. She is not as lonely anymore and she will eat well this winter thanks to all of you.
Have a wonderful, beautiful day.
Hugs to all,

I sent her some seeds, lettuce, something else, and some herbs, basil I know . I hope she got my package. She should have by now. Hope it didn't get lost. Hope she writes a journal one day. I would love to read it.

I just realized that I should have posted what seeds I sent to Michele. From what I can remember, I sent tomatilla, green pepper, carrot (whoops!), yellow squash, oregano, basil...not sure what else.
Betty J. Posted - Apr 18 2013 : 2:47:35 PM
Michele mentioned in her letter that she has lengthened her stay until April. That means she will have another winter there and spring also.

I got a long letter from Michele and she ask me to tell you something. "My Dear Sweet Hens thank you for the seeds & that I am good on corn, green beans, carrots and tomatoes. But, anyone has any extra green onions, bell peppers, radishes, broccoli, Lima beans, rosemary, tarragon, oregano or Thyme, I'd love to have them and I's gladly will pay for postage if needed or wanted. I am doing alright but miss all of of you.
My next trip to town I will pick up some of the seeds she needs and if there is anyone left who wanted to seed her something she needed here you go.
Thank you all for coming through for a wonderful Farmgirl Sister in need, she appreciates it so much as do I, she is a very special and Dear Friend to me as well.
Any question let me or Julie know.
Hugs,
Debbie

Yes Betty she really does love and appreciate all care packages. I try to send something special each month. She loves mysteries, books on tape, coffee, tea and chocolate. She gets so excited when she gets a package. Sometimes it's just a teabag, a couple of silly band aids or a seek and find puzzle I printed off the net! She just loves knowing someone out there cares. Just about anything is perfect since she doesn't have a car and lives a short distance from town.

I'll bet Michele would love a CARE package like we send to soldiers overseas. You know, goodies that she might not purchase for herself right at this moment.

Debbie,
I sent a note to her with the seeds and asked her to let me know if there was any that she did not get but wanted ... I would send them to her.

Seeds to Michele went out from me on Monday, 4/8. I had cukes, dill, some flower seeds, green peppers, and golly, I should have made a list. I know there were three herb seed packets. For the life of me I can't remember.

I sent her sunflowers and tomato seeds.

Everyone who has sent seeds if you could just post here which ones you sent it will help, thank you.

Can anyone who is sending her seeds, tell what kind they are? I was going to buy her some, but I don't want to send her what everyone else is so she doesn't get a ton of one type and none of something else she may like.

Debbie, do you know if she is going to can her veggies?
