Hi there! I'm fairly new but not seeing a chapter in my area, I went ahead and started one. If anyone is in the Champaign-Urbana area or knows Farmgirls who are, please join me in the Prairie Farmgirls Gathering.
I already head up a craft group http://groups.yahoo.com/group/CU_craftgroup/ that meets semi-regularly and my ultimate goal would be to merge this group along with other crafty Farmgirl-types into one unified Prairie Farmgirls Gathering. Anyone have experience transforming a pre-arranged group into a Farmgirl Chapter? Our craft group is an ever-changing cast of characters with a few fulltime players so I could always just change the name but I'd rather gather everyone behind one rallying cry of "Farmgirls Rule" than just change the name for my own sake.

| Hi to CorgiPants and coffeemom, I'm here in rural Greenview, half way between Peoria and Springfield. I don't know of a chapter in my area and would like to visit some of the meetings/get togethers sometime, when I'm not sewing, cooking, gardening or dreaming about gardening of course. Keep us posted on the progress of the groups, I'm glad I found fellow central illinois farm girls! |

You gals are sure making me homesick! I was born and raised in Spingfield, and listening to you all talk about where you live brings lots of memories to mind! Just went through Staunton last August when I went home. Hope you Prairie gals can get together! :)
