HI ! I am new to Maryjanes farmgirl connection, I'm from the southern part of Tn in Coffee county, very rural. We live 6 miles to the nearest small town. No neighbors within looking distance. We have 2 gardens and grow most all our own vegetables. We also planted fruit trees 3 yrs ago and have been rewarded with our first goodies this year. We have berries and grapes. Chickens and 3 Australian Shepherd dogs. I can and freeze and dehydrate, make jellies, jams, and butters. I have been making our yogurt since January. I crochet, knit (some), and quilt. I am pleased to find this group and hope to meet people that shares the yearnings to simplify, till we chat again, have a blessed and productive day !

I sure wish I knew you were selling chickens. I am needing some more.I would love to have some CM. I want some more Buff hens too. I saw an ad on Craig's list for some Buffs in Tn. $10 a piece. I am saving my milk and egg money to get some more soon. Looks like you had a good day today.
