I am so excited to find this site and to find some like minded friends. Sometimes I feel like I am the only one I know who gets excited about rare breed animals, agricultural fairs, and walks in the country. I guess I just haven't been meeting the right ladies. So many women I meet are hung up spending money on the latest at the mall that I felt like an oddball. I grew up in rural Vermont, then lived in a big city in Fla. which was not for me at all. Now I am in Maine which I love and I am hoping to make some new friends and finally get to live the way I have always wanted. I am going to be a chapter leader and maybe I can meet some people in my own area and learn from everyone online as well. |

Robin, thats too far away for my schedule right now...but if its on a day when I'm off, I'd love to. Kelly and I worked together in Bangor and I just recently moved away. But for this, I would come back. I gotta pick up my farmgirl certificate. Kelly, it looks like the 29th at this time that I'll be there. See ya then :)

Kelly, I'll email you!
Birdi, I'm not sure where Hartland is located. Are you any where near Bangor, and if so, would you like to get together with us on December 8?

OOPS! Just getting the hang of this. I'd love to meet for coffee and get to know you better. I know where the Ramada is or we can meet somewhere else. Just give me a time that is convenient for you. Kelly

I'll be at the Ramada all weekend. I'm going to leave early and bum around with my new camera for the afternoon. Would you like to meet up for coffee on Friday, the 8th?

Hi Kelly,
I know exactly what you mean about find like minded people. I've finally met some too and have the forum to talk to all my farmgirl friends. It's great, isn't it? Welcome.

Hi Kelly! Welcome! I'm hoping to leave my 'big city' for my little farm next year. It's always good to meet another farm girl.

Hi Kelly,
You have found yourself a great group of gals! Good luck with starting your own chapter! I'm thinking about doing the same thing, there isn't one in Nevada and I think there should be! Cindy

A big hello from Pa to Maine - We try to do a trip in the summer to Maine - I usually stay in this little church camp ground in Epping,New Hampshire and do day trips into Maine and Vermont (our goal next year to hit all the county fairs for between Pa and Maine next year in one of my road trips) |

Good to meet you Kelly. You will enjoy it here because we are all so like-minded and yet still different. It makes a great mix. Welcome!
