Miss Bee Haven	Posted - Feb 08 2007 : 12:16:07 PM I just picked up the second Hobby Farm Home magazine. I emailed them yesterday to ask if/when another issue would come out and they responded within minutes to say that it came out the 27th. of January. Has anyone read it? I can't wait to get home and devour it. It has an article about collecting and cooking food from the wild, refurbishing a cast iron pot, collecting antique textiles,beginning birdwatching and repurposing rainwater.

Miss Bee Haven	Posted - Feb 12 2007 : 07:18:30 AM I just got an email from Sarah Coleman at HFH(boy, she's on the ball!). They aren't set up to take subscriptions yet, but they are now deciding what to do about '08(wow! I still can't decide what to do with 07, and they're on 08!) :D "If you think you've got it nailed down, then what's all that around it?" - 'Brother Dave' Gardner
Miss Bee Haven	Posted - Feb 12 2007 : 06:19:09 AM I can't find a separate website just for Hobby Farm Home. I hope they do have six issues a year. I have really, really loved the first two! I emailed the woman who responded to my original email and asked her about subscribing and told her how much I enjoyed the first two issues. I agree with Jonni about HFH having stuff that's easily usable, no matter where you live. "If you think you've got it nailed down, then what's all that around it?" - 'Brother Dave' Gardner

junebug	Posted - Feb 10 2007 : 1:05:42 PM Does anyone know the link? I haven't seen it out anywhere here? Visit me at my blogs: www.countrypleasures.blogspot.com www.herbalfarmstead.blogspot.com www.photo-per-day.blogspot.com
KYgurlsrbest	Posted - Feb 10 2007 : 07:44:23 AM I found the Hobby Farms Home magazine a little better suited to me than just Hobby Farms--while I love that one, a farm is rather like a pipe dream for me, and I can read about goats till the cows come home (??) but it still doesn't help me apply learning now....this HFHome really has things that I can do right now! I agree with Bramble--I have about an acre, but we're in the city, and I could do something with each article. Just think of all of the roads there are...all of the things I haven't seen....yet.
Nance in France	Posted - Feb 10 2007 : 03:46:41 AM I'd say that rates a 10 on the snappy scale! Bet your census taker would lloooovvvveee THAT one; yeah, right, buddy, try to put a checkmark next to that one! Thanks, Bramble!
bramble	Posted - Feb 09 2007 : 2:31:39 PM I liked it and it was applicable though I am temporarily "ensconsed in suburbia" bordering farmland. How's that for a snappy description? I'll send it to you and you can decide! with a happy heart
Nance in France	Posted - Feb 09 2007 : 1:40:44 PM Hey, ladies. Bramble, just sent you an email asking whether you think it would be worth it for me, since my farms (US and France) are only backyards.....what do ya'll think?
bramble	Posted - Feb 09 2007 : 06:13:21 AM I just found it "by accident" and loved it! I will have to see if I can come up with the first issue somewhere. Nance in France, would you like me to send you a copy? The refurbishing topic is very similar to our cast iron threads but with pictures! I would be happy to, if you are interested let me know. with a happy heart
happymama58	Posted - Feb 09 2007 : 06:09:44 AM I bought it yesterday and have resisted the urge to sit down and read it all at one setting since there won't be another one for several months. I think this second issue is just as wonderful as the premiere issue was! Some people search for happiness; others create it. http://happymama58.typepad.com/my_weblog/ Please visit me at www.marykay.com/pmiinch
junebug	Posted - Feb 09 2007 : 06:03:59 AM A new magazine and I haven't heard of yet?? Is there a website to check out, sounds like a good one! Visit me at my blogs: www.countrypleasures.blogspot.com www.herbalfarmstead.blogspot.com www.photo-per-day.blogspot.com
Nance in France	Posted - Feb 09 2007 : 03:09:06 AM Ok you guys, I am intrigued. HOW do you refurbish a cast iron pot????? Thanks in advance from Nance!
herbquilter	Posted - Feb 08 2007 : 8:42:32 PM I just found this yesterday & am thrilled. Great article on cultured milk products to make. This is a great magazine for only it's 2nd issue. I sure hope they keep it up. Blessings, Kristine ~ Mother of Many & Herbalist www.herbalmomma.com
Kim	Posted - Feb 08 2007 : 4:21:30 PM I love that publication!!!! Blessed Be! farmgirl@heart Be at peace with yourself and the rest will follow http://chevy49girl.livejournal.com/ http://chevy49girl.deviantart.com/
Miss Bee Haven	Posted - Feb 08 2007 : 1:05:22 PM No, you can't subscribe yet. The person who emailed me said there will be three issues in 07. The other two will come out 5/22 and 9/25. "If you think you've got it nailed down, then what's all that around it?" - 'Brother Dave' Gardner
KYgurlsrbest	Posted - Feb 08 2007 : 12:29:25 PM Was that not the best magazine??? I read EVERY page of it--I hopped on their webpage yesterday, too, but it doesn't look like it's available for subscription yet, right? I sent them a "good job, get the magazine out" email, so hopefully, maybe if others do the same, they will!!! I loved that article on the rainwater and the cast iron--how many of those have I ruined or bought thinking I could save? Just think of all of the roads there are...all of the things I haven't seen....yet.
