Hi girls!

I just wanted to figure out how to tell all of you how much you mean to me, even if you're new and I haven't "met" you yet - you are my farmgirl sisters! And I am grateful for every single one of you!

But I was also thinking... Heck... I can't be the only farmgirl who feels this way! So MANY of us have connected here on MJF in such special ways! And ALL farmgirls are absolutely STELLAR, and deserve THEIR time to SHINE! ALL of you deserve to be FGOM, too!

So here's the deal:

Each of you please take a moment to name your favorite farmgirl below, and tell us why she is so special to your heart. Is it something she does? Is it something she has done for you? How does she inspire you? What farmgirl qualities always come to mind when you see her on MJF? If her name is picked in the drawing, SHE will win a special gift from me!

But wait.. that's not good enough! Because chances are, YOU are a pretty awesome farmgirl yourself and deserve a little sumtin' sumtin' special, too!

SO...

When you name your favorite farmgirl and tell us all the special things about her, I will include YOU in the giveaway! THAT'S RIGHT! If her name is pulled in the drawing, then you BOTH will win a special gift from me - to celebrate BOTH of you!!!

Let's call it the "We're ALL FGOM Giveaway!"

One gift for your favorite farmgirl - AND one gift for YOU!!!!

Cool? COOL!

Here's how it works:

As I said, YOU post all about YOUR FAVORITE FARMGIRL below, telling us why she is so special to you.

Entry submissions must be made no later than noon on August 30th.

Then on August 30th, I will write down both of your names and addresses on a piece of paper and put them in my cookie crock and really shake it around good.

THEN I will then have my hubby pull the winners' names and announce them on MJF! (GOOD LUCK TO ALL OF YOU!!!)

THEN I will email you to obtain your address as well as your favorite farmgirl's address.

Once I receive your addresses, your gifts will be mailed out to each of you right away!

Cool? COOL!

So, what will you win? Here's the fun part!

If you and your favorite farmgirl win the drawing, each of you will receive one set of the following two matching sets - one for her, one for you!:




That includes one of each of these for each of you:



- A Hand Dipped Fall Harvest Cake Candle by the Warm Glow Candle Company in Centerville, Indiana
- An Autumn Pumpkin and Floral Candle Ring
- An Alphabet Tin Candle Plate



- My personal favorite Raspberry Jam sampler from my favorite local berry farm, Sand Hill Berries, in Mount Pleasant, PA
- A Blackberry Sage Tea sampler from The Republic of Teas
- A lovely little Floral Teabag holder



- My favorite new canning cookbook, "Not Your Mama's Canning Book," by Rebecca Lindamood! SO excited to share this with you!!!

Again, your giveaway entry submissions must be posted here below by Monday, August 3oth at noon.

Winners names will be announced shortly thereafter.

Your giveaway gifts will be mailed out as soon as I receive your addresses.

Cool? COOL!

I am so excited to celebrate all of us farmgirls together this month! I hope you all are, too! I just can't WAIT to hear all the wonderful things you have to say!

Happy! Happy! Joy! Joy!

MJF Farmgirls are the BEST!

Hugs and Love -

Yeah!!! Congrats ladies, and especially my dear friend Nini for putting this together in the midst of a super event filled life.
And....cherry crock!! I have been obsessed with cherry print ever since watching Marilyn Monroe in The Misfits with Clark Gable, where she wore this adorable cherry print sundress and played bat and ball. Sorry, off topic, but once again Congrats to Debbie and Sherry, and thanks Nini!!!!
