Hi everybody, my name is Cathy Murray but most people call me Cathy "Cobblestone" - cause Cobblestone Farms is the name of my lil' gift shop in the great town of Greensburg, KY. That's right, I have the honor of knowing Frannie personally and yes, as you all know, she is WONDERFUL. She has been such a blessing to our small town, to me, and is a true inspiration to all. Because of Ms. Frannie, I had the priviledge of meeting Mary Jane and her sweet family when they came to visit me last fall. Boy, was I ever so nervous but their kindness was overwhelming. It was a splended time while the farmgirls were here - it was a visit I shall never forget!
Some tidbits about me and my family - we live on a small farm where we raise beef cattle, we have a greenhouse where we grow lots of annuals, perennials and vegetables. In the fall, we grow mums, asters and many varieties of pumpkins and gourds. I do all of this of course with the help of my wonderful husband, Shaun (who also teaches agriculture) and our sweet lil' boy, Casen.
I so wish I had signed up sooner, but honestly, I am just getting the hang of all this computer "stuff". I do hope you all will bear with me while I figure it all out. Thank you so much for the opportunity to share with you and I look forward to learning a great deal from all of the fun farmgirls out there. Have a blessed day!

From one Kentucky girl to another, Welcome! I'm in the northern part of the state, near Florence (but I don't claim Florence!), in Elsmere, Kentucky. Can't wait to get to know you more!

Hi Maryjane Lee - thanks for the welcome. I am very lucky to be friends with Frannie, you are right about that. But anyone she befriends is so fortunate because she puts her heart into trying to help one succeed. She compliments, pushes sales, "toots your horn" whatever it takes to help you out. All us Kentucky girls are real fortunate to have her close by - she is like, the best cheerleader EVER! Thanks again, so happy to be on board! Cathy Cobblestone
