Hi Everyone-
This place is great. I am so glad I stummbled across it.
My name is Lillian and I live just outside of Silverton, Oregon. I grew up in the city, thinking I would be a city girl all of my life. Until the love of my life showed me what country life is all about.
We have a little over 5 usable acres. We have dogs, cats and chickens. Seriously thinking about goats and/or sheep. My garden is HUGE and should be able to provide us with veggies all year again.
I do not know a lot of people that have the same ideas as I do, this is why I have joined this forum. After a few days of reading, I feel like I am home.
Oh, I guess I should also tell you a little about me and my family. I am a SAHM of 2 boys. My oldest is now away at college and the youngest is 16 and a junior in HS. My latest project is grinding my own flour, we just love homebaked bread here.
Hope to get to know you girs better.

I hope you post often and if you ever need anything, just holler-somebody somewhere will help you :)

Hi Lillian....I grew up in Monmouth and we played Silverton in sports. I guess that makes us rivals! You will love it on this forum and hopefully you will join in often!
I wish I still lived in Oregon, I'd come over and check out your garden! See ya around! Cindy

Trish- I can't belive you have been to Silverton. We love it here but, it is getting too big. My DS works at Roths.

Welcome Lilian.
A friend of mine ground some flour for me a few weeks ago and it was heavenly.

Welcome Lillian. I love Silverton, it's the cutest little city. I used to buy food at Roth's and eat it at the park next to the creek that runs through town. And the Oregon Garden is the greatest. I went the first year it was open, I bet it is even better now.
