Hello everyone. I live in the city but my heart is truly on the farm which is where I hope to be when I retire. My dream is to have a few acres and have a big garden and some fruit trees and raise goats and chickens. Right now, I do the best I can on my tiny plot of land in the city. I hope to get to know all of you and to learn from all of you. And boy, do I have alot to learn. I am so excited because I just signed up for the Sisterhood and received my number. Awesome. I can't wait for the package in the mail.

Welcome to the Farm Girl Sisterhood. Like you I live in the city and am looking forward to owning my own farm soon. Have fun and good luck.

May the stars carry your sadness away. May the flowers fill your heart with beauty, and may hope forever wipe away your tears. |

Welcome Joanie, here it doesn't matter where we live we're all FarmGirls at heart. I live in a city of 30,000 and have backyard chickens. Will be looking for you around the farm.

Joanie, a big welcome from another city girl. I went the other direction. I went from the farm to the city but my heart is on the farm. I hope your dream will someday come true.

Welcome to the Farm Joanie! Your dream sounds wonderful and I pray that when retirement comes, you will obtain it. Until then, I hope you continue to learn. I too am in a steady process of learning! I am so clueless ;)

Hi Joanie! A big Texas welcome! Learning is what keeps us going in this life. And no one knows everything, that's why it's so great to have each other - there's always a sister who knows (and is willing to share) what we don't know yet.  We all keep learning together.

Thank you so much for the welcome. Right now, I work in an office during the week so my time to do what I want is limited but I always start my day in my garden as my meditation to get ready for the day. Right now, I have alot of tomatoes and I always pick a cherry tomato or two and pop them in my mouth first thing. When I get home at the end of the day and after dinner is done and I can finally sit down, I work on my crochet which is very relaxing to me. Then the weekend comes and that's the best time of the week because I can be in my garden all day.

Hi Joanie,
Welcome to the Sisterhood!
One thing I love about being a Farmgirl... there is always more to learn! :-) You can teach us some things too, I promise!
