Hi All!

Well, a very MINOR dilemma, but I sure could use some input!
What's a city-to-country girl to do? Uhh, other than to write a whole city-to-country online magazine?

Here's the story....as you can see below, I have three blogs. I also run various websites. I dance, I work with animals, I write and NOW, I'm also teaching herbalism in the city (but I'm definitely NOT sleeping! )....

So, in order to save time SOMEWHERE, I'm trying to consolidate the blogs and possibly, the websites, but I need a name that encompasses it ALL...if that's even possible--haha!

Right now, I like Enchanted Earth Farms/Enchanted Earth Farmacy (that's more of the herbal side) or Imagineacres....

I think it keeps the artsy, earthy, farmy parts intact!

Which do you like better? OR, if someone has a better idea, throw it at me...I'd just have to see if there's a webname available for it...but, any input helps!! DOH!

I think Farmtopia is an excellent idea and one that people will remember because it's different. It encompasses everything that you are doing. My second choice would be Enchanted Earth Farms.

Zan - you are one busy woman. It's a good thing you're young and have lots of energy.

Aww, shucks Sherri!

Well, now, I don't know, but I am surely grateful for all of the suggestions! And, yes, I am so in awe of the the women and men who have this brave and great life on the land! Farmers and teachers, two truly under-appreciated "jobs" in this country!

Actually, I think Amie has something there. To us, speaking just for myself of course, you are becoming the "Farmtopia". the best of all of Your worlds meshed together. You live the big city life, your live your art, you love and care for animals, you live and work for the preservation of the "farm". How cool is that? Being a "chicken-necker" meself ;) I want the rest of the real farmers and farmgirls know how much I revere, respect, and want to emulate them. Imitation is the greatest flattery, i suppose.
It would be an Utopian society if everyone could have the sense of compassion, empathy and connected-ness, that you do!

IMHO ;)

I vote for Imagineacres too. It leaves room for any type of posting, agriculture, art, animals or a yet to be named topic. All the other names were wonderful too, really any would do.

Well like Imagineacres but I also think that a combination of your suggested names forming Enchanted Farms Imaginacres would be well just as enchanting.

Although no one can go back and make a brand new start; anyone can start from now
and make a brand new end.

Hey Guys, thanks for the input! Hmm, Amie...haha, you are going to laugh, but Farmtopia is not my first choice! I actually wanted to sign up for MJF under another name, and that was taken! I'm not sure how I would like it as a business name...hmmm..

Have you considered using Farmtopia as a business name? It's got connotations of utopia, but also cornucopia and pharmacopia (I think that's a word for collections of medicinal stuff, right?)

I personally like the Imagineacres......I picture green acres filled with arts and people and things and just perfect!
