Hi farmgirls!! It is exciting to see you all plotting and planning a way to visit the farm! Be sure to take a peek at the Farmgirl Campout Convention section for information on this summers' Farm Fair and Farmgirl Campout. (click on How to start your very own Farmgirl Chapter on the Farmgirl Connection opening page, then click on the tab at the top of the page for Farmgirl Campout Conventions.)
I truly wish that each and every one of you could travel to the farm to join us! All of us farmgirls here at the farm would love to meet you!!
Sunnily yours,
MaryJane's Left-Hand Farmgirl

well, truthfully, I think once my fi decides to go (b/c he will!!!) he'll enjoy it as much as me! But now I have to decide on the campout... it sounds like SO much fun! If I must bring him with me, can anyone camp away from the "Farmgirl" tent? How does it work?

Hi Lacy! My goodness, I've just taken a look at your blog site ~ your "farmgirl" wedding plans are just awesome! The sugar mold centerpieces, straw bales for seating and the vintage linens for decoration will be absolutely lovely!! Have you thought of using vintage linens for table runners?
I'm thrilled that you are considering making the trip up to the farm for Farm Fair and the Farmgirl campout after your honeymoon in Jackson Hole. You two could certainly camp in the wheat field ~ just remember it's not an official camp ground, so you'd need to have your own water supply. Perhaps you could treat yourselves to a night in one of MaryJane's wall tents ~ you know, continue the honeymoon in style!! Your sweetie might want to go fishing with Diane's dear hubby! I look forward to meeting you both!!
sunnily yours,
MaryJane's Left-Hand Farmgirl

The wall tents are tres romantic -- if you can swing it, it would be really fun, I think!

Well, Jenny, you can give my seat to another farmgal. The airfare is just too steep for us. But, hubby says I can save up for next year! I so appreciate your offer to ride up with you. And, Patricia, I also appreciate your offer to stay the night with you before heading to Jenny's. Oh, I am so going to have to fight envy!!!
Thanks gals...y'all are the greatest!
Blessings
Catherine

oh darn! Well, if anything changes..there is still lots of time...you let us know!!My husband is talking about going to a family wedding (a nephew on husbands side of the family) who is getting married in Vegas three days before we leave for farm fair and I told him he could go without me and get his "break" and then when he gets home he would be all rested up for my trip!!
I don't know if I ever told you Catherine..I LOVE your tag line..best quote ever!!

McKenzie Mist ~
Hi neighboring 'farmgirl at heart' friend! Welcome to the Farmgirl Connection Forum!! You'll meet lots of terrific new friends here!! Thank you for asking about the next MJF magazine ~ here are the details regarding the next issue that Carol posted awhile back ~ ~
The latest on the magazine now is that it will be on sale May 2. Some of the big chains that carry our magazine (like Wal-Mart) have new policies in place that say if you're going to increase the price of a magazine, you have to give them 90 days notice. The reason for that? A special issue that
includes a cookbook and nearly 40 more pages. BUT, we think you'll be pleased. Instead of the Artists in Aprons issue that we had planned (that's still coming, but will now be the next issue), we are going to give you a cookbook along with most of the regular sections of the magazine. For this
issue, instead of a catalog of our products, we're publishing recipes using MaryJane's Budget Mix (a kind of organic all-purpose baking mix) that will include breakfast items, appetizers, panbreads, BakeOvers, FoldOvers and desserts. We'll give you the option of making your own Budget Mix or buying ours. We've been testing the recipes here at the farm (Whimsy_girl has also been graciously helping), and we think you'll love them! Because it will be a cookbook as well as a magazine, we increased the price of this issue to $7.99.
We're so sorry you have to wait a little longer, but we've been also been working on our Stitching Room workbook. We've increased the size of it by almost 100 pages, so it probably won't be available until fall. Since we do all the sewing, cooking, writing, editing, photography, and design of our books and magazines here at the farm, it takes the time it takes. It will be worth the wait ... I promise!
Thank you very much for your enthusiasm and patience!! While you're waiting, would you consider joining in the fun of being a MJF Farmgirl Chapter Leader? Let me know and I'll e-mail the information!
sunnily yours,
Cindylou

I absolutely can't wait for the new workbook and magazine - it's fun things like this that make May seem so far away!  Autumn is a great time for a stitching room workbook, too - as winter is THE project time for sewing around here...
XOXO, Libbie

 AAAA! Oh the withdrawals!!!!!! May seems so far away!!!! Ok, I'm fine now, I think. I will be mature and wait patiently, sort of!! I know it will be worth the wait.

I have an idea ... lots of questions etc etc. Being we are the creative farm gals that we are & always coming up with something new,
I did and just posted it on my Etsy site but I keep thinking... what about the legal issues ??? Is there any possibility of having someone mentor us through the red tape of the business side of things when your located "down on the farm".
I know that with Etsy sites & the new farmgirl USA site coming etc that alot of us have questions. Could we have a column in the mag. to help with this, please.

| Okay, so now I found the magazine topic. I had created a new topic before finding this. Anyway, I found the Mary Janes Farm magazine at Hastings today. I will probably go ahead and put in my order for a subsscription. I love this magazine! |
