Posted - Jul 03 2009 : 7:23:06 PM Hello!
I am writing from almost sunny New Hampshire. I have to say that I am so glad I live in New Hampshire right at this moment because the farmer's markets are just teeming with fresh fruit and veggies and homemade breads and local meat, flowers and herbs. I just love this time of year when everything is blooming and I can actually feel good about what I put in my body, knowing that it is fresh, pesticide free and local! Being an herbalist and trying to live a mostly vegetarian lifestyle in the city aint always easy, but when there are farms right around the corner from the stone and pavement, it makes things a bit easier when the sun comes around.
Give me a shout out if you too live in old New England and let me know how you balance your city farm girl with your rural farm girl.

I also live in New Hampshire just a little bit north of Concord. I balance the city life and the farm girl in me by attempting to grow fresh veggies on my porch and keeping little button quail in my sewing room. I am also lucky enough that the rest of my family have houses with nice backyards and they let me play in the dirt and plant flowers.

Posted - Jul 06 2009 : 04:57:59 AM Welcome Eleanor! How lucky you are to have such wonderful Farmer's Markets by you! I am hoping to visit New Hampshire some day, I have heard it is one of the most beautiful states in the country. I love New England but am a Midwestern farmgirl.
I live in the suburbs, so it is a little easier being a farmgirl on my one acre wooded lot. For me, being a farmgirl is really in my heart, not my yard! I think you will love it here, loads of like minded gals to learn, laugh and share with!

You will love it here. I'm sorry I can't help you out with the balance, right now we live in a rural area. I grew up in Massachusetts and sure do miss New England :)
I look forward to getting to know you :)
