Welcome Brandi. glad you came a visiting and I am sure some will give you tips on dill pickles. I can't because my mother-in-law always made the best and I tried once and they didn't measure up. So ......MB

Hi BrandyBee
If you make pickles like Grandma Mary no one will be over for seconds. Mom just did have the nack for pickles. Grandma Walker did, but all her recipes died with her. She just didn't like to share recipes. I'll check Grandma Next Door's recipe box for her recipes. They were good.

Welcome Brandy. You asked about pickles.....I tried making dills this year for the first time and had great success. I used the recipe from Ball's Blue Book of Food Preservation...it is a must for the home canner. Best of luck! and glad you joined us here.

Hi Brandy,
Welcome from another "new girl"- I can really sympathize with your poultry situation; I've spent the last couple of years trying to convince my neighbors that I NEED chickens...good luck with your husband!

Good Afternoon,
I am from central Ohio and learned about MaryJanesFarm from Frannie in Kentucky. I am a country girl at heart but recently my boyfriend and I have purchased a small farmhouse with the really neat barn, 7+ acres in all. Sooo, I want to learn to be a good farmgirl and learn everything I can and through this website and forum and hopefully all of you out there can help me!

Smiles, Jack
