It is time, once again, to do our Annual Farmboy Swap, celebrated on Father's Day. This year is going to be our third year in a row. For those of you who are new, we started doing this because many of us have Farmboys who are always curious as to what are in all those Farmgirl Mail packages that come in the mail for us. When we started sharing about that discovery, what we really realized was that the Farmboys had figured out that there was most likely some candy in that mail!! LOL!!
So I had this idea to do a swap here where we sign up, list some likes of our Farmboys, and then when partners are posted, you will create a swap for that Farmboy and mail in time for FAther's Day.
Every Farmboy qualifies in this fun swap!!
This year, Father's Day is June 21.
Here are the guidelines: Sign up and leave us some ideas of what your Farmboy would like in a surprise package. Keep it simple with easy to find things like certain types of candy, microwave popcorn, jerky etc.
Sign ups through June 5 and partners listed June 6. Please mail your package no later than
Friday, June 12 so it will arrive in time. Several Farmgirls have noticed that packages are not arriving on time since th pandemic has hit. To be safe, I am asking you to please mail out the earlier date listed above just to be sure packages arrive.
PARTNERS:
jmpiercy--QuiltWright
BeckyT---treelady
TexasGran-----doctorbar
Levisgrammy---Sheridan16
GinnyBelle-----RedTractorGirl
If you have any questions please email me for help. Let's surprise our favorite Farmboys with their own Farmgirl Mail again!!

My Farmboy is always excited when a package addressed to him arrives? The funny thing, he never seems to remember!! LOL!! Here are a few things I know he loves and are easy to find. Unsalted pistachios in their shells, Orbit chewing gum in either peppermint or Spearming flavor, REESES chocolate in any form, and a new bandana to use for his daily run.

Sign my farmboy up Winnie! He loves beef jerky, just about anything that includes chocolate, especially Hershey bars w/ almonds, Reese's and M&Ms. Who doesn't? lol.

What an incredible idea! Please sign up my guy, thank you! He is another fan of chocolate, dark chocolate with caramel is the best! Reese's pieces or peanut m&m's, too. He's a biker (motorcycle and bicycle) so I also love the bandanna idea for him! He uses a Hydroflask for water, so maybe a sticker for that. But really any fun mail would make his day!

Winnie please sign my farm boy up. Right now he is spending long days in the tractor getting our crops planted so farmgirl Mail will be perfect. He likes anything chocolate and if it has peanut butter in it that's a huge plus. Licorice is another one of his favorites along with cashews and nuts.

Please add my guy to the list. He was in a couple years ago and he thought it was great! Missed last year because of the move, so I am sure it will be another great surprise for him this year. Fishing or just being on water, peanuts, anything hot flavored and beer are his likes. He loves chocolate too, but it gets too hot here for it to arrive in any solid form this time of year.
Enjoying the day! |

I'd like to add my Farm Dude. He would love anything Americana/Patriotic/tractor related, any candy, nuts or licorice.

I would like to sign my Farmboy up for this swap. He likes sunflower seeds in the shell, hot pork skins, peanut butter, Sugar Free candy with chocolate (he has Diabetes), actually any kind of sugar free candy, trail mix and any kind of nuts. He will be totally surprised! This is a neat idea! BTW, his name is Sam.

My farmboy is getting on up in years, but he has discovered pumpkin seeds...they are a green color, and he likes them roasted and salted.
He likes beef jerky. And he enjoys dried fruits like apricots, or a mix of dried fruits. Nuts are also a good treat
He loves chocolate, but it is getting pretty hot here so some butterscotch or caramel hard candies would make his day.
His name is Robert. He is a carpenter, so on the days he goes to work with our son, he is very tired...because he is old, and having his very own package to open and enjoy...WOW!
