Hi farmgirls united! I'm new joining in from Michigan. I live on a small hobby farm 8-1/2 acres and love it. My husband, Rick recently retired and also loves the country life. We are currently raising chickens and two bulls. We also big-time vegetable garden. I love to can and freeze veggies, jams, jellies, sauces, etc. We appreciate home grown food, more organic and healthier. My hobbies include sewing and quilting. I am working on getting my etsy.com up and running. Focusing on fun and functional and vintage items: aprons, clothing, anything for simplifying the home. Always looking for inspiration and suggestions? I look forward to getting to know my sister farm gals. The forums are uplifting and motivated to simplify and enjoy life. Dinner is calling , Later, Jean
The Lord will open to you His good treasure, the heavens, to give the rain to your land in its season, and to bless all the work of your hands. Ps 28:12 |
