Hello, my name is Laura and I am from Kentucky. I moved here about four years ago. Before that I was raised on a mini farm in Montana. I also lived in the hills of Idaho. I have two boys 21 and 23, two step kids 19 and 24 and my first grand baby 7months,a wonderful hubby, two dogs and a cat . I grew up gardening and raising most of our meat. I moved to Idaho in "98" where I worked in the Court house with three of our Farmgirl Gals. Lisa Marie from Idaho City is the one that got me started on here so I must thank her from the bottom of my heart she is a great friend and a wonderful gardener. I miss her. We now live in Kentucky and have plenty of room to garden and start becoming more self sufficient. I look forward to all the great ideas and information I will be getting from you all. I have been reading all the comments for the last week and you are all a great bunch of people. I am excited to be a part of this.

Welcome Laura! I'm in Waco, just about an hour or so north-east from you. Are you going to Miss Wilma's this weekend? If so, I might get to meet you there. It's great to see so many Kentucky farmgirls here now and I hope to get to know you better.

Howdy Stranger! Laura, you will just love the energy that goes along with all the Farmgirl ways. I was so excited to hear from Lisa Marie that you finally hooked up with this gang! Look forward to new and lifelong friends. Welcome and Farmgirl hugs and love from Rose.
To everyone else, Laura is a rare person indeed. She has such a great sense of humor and she can make me laugh for hours. We actually laughed so hard we cried the tears of laughter on many occasions. Yet another fine farmgirl, you farmgirls in Kentucky are lucky to have her and it goes both ways! Have a ball Laura, but don't forget Idaho City!!
Some people look for happiness, others create it!
We are never alone in the forest of Sisters! We "Mountain Farmgirls" are outstanding in our field! |

Miz Frannie, I have been reading all about this wonderful time that you have been blessed with. Enjoy those babies, they grow up so fast.
We will for sure include you in a outing. Girlfriend times are the best!
It is been a little while since I was in Greensburg. Spent the weekend there around the middle of April. Ange, her hubby Steven, Gary and I flew to NYC the 7th of June. Ange's formal graduation was there on the 9th. It was a nice trip for us(we had never been there) but I am not a city girl, not sure I want to go back to NYC.
Got a reunion in TN this weekend, county fair this next week and then maybe I can rest and enjoy some of the summer.
When you work in Extension, the spring planting season, 4-H camp and activities and then the county fair sure makes for a busy several months. That is one reason I have not been on the board much, just so much going on and never seem to have time for me. Just life...right?
I know Laura will enjoy this board and I cant wait to have more time to get back to keeping up with friends.

Hi Laura,
Sorry, I just now seen this post. A big warm welcome to the board. You will love it here. We do have some wonderful KY Farmgirls. I went to an outing at Miz Frannies. She had a fun filled weekend planned for us. It was wonderful. She gives such a warm welcome to her home.
And by the way, I am your neighbor! for real. I am about 20 to 25 min. away. I live in Monticello. I am in Somerset quite often. We will have to meet some Saturday for lunch or some Friday night for supper. Email me and I will send you my cell # and more info.
Hope you enjoy it here in Southern KY. Lived here in the mountains most of my 46 years.

Welcome to the board Laura. I'm originally right down the road from Somerset, but I now live oh about 1 1/2 hours down the country road north of you. My family still lives down there though. Just wanted to stop by and say "howdy" to a fellow KY Farmgirl. We've had a few farmgirl gatherings, the last one being about a month ago with many of us in attendance. I think our next one may be 4th of July.

Hi, Laura, I'm about an hour away from you in Greensburg. I use to come to Somerset quite often--Paul's Discount--if we ain't got it, you don't need it--is their motto. I bought a lot of quilted fabric there to make purses. Somerset has really grown and changed over the last few years. I like to shop there. My parents and I use to come to a flea market out by the lake. I don't know if they still have it or not.
Like Cathy Cobblestone said, come down (or up) sometime and all us farmgirls will get together for a picnic.
