I've been a farmgirl at heart for many years but just now discovering the Farmgirl Connection forums. Are there any farmgirl chapters near Gresham, Sandy, Wood Village, Troutdale, SE Portland area?

Welcome, Heather. I am way across the country in Ga. So no help here. But there are alot of Or. farmgirls here. You'll hear from them soon, I'm sure.

That is lots of kids. I guess you're a busy lady with 4 teenagers. Enjoy the forum and just jump on in.

HI Heather,
So happy you found the farm. Im over here in Jersey, but I know of quite a few farmgirls from OR. They will be wishing their welcomes too. :)
Hope you are having a great week!

Welcome Heather! Yes, another Oregon girl here. We have quite a few girls from Oregon, but we are all spread out. As far as local chapters go, the website says we have a few but I could never get an answer from any of them. So as far as I know there are no local chapters. A few of us do try and meet twice a year and have lunch. Last time we met was in October at the Portland Farmers Market. Anne usually coordinates that and I am sure she will pop in and give you a welcome. Glad to have you here.

Hi Heather, from your neighbor in Northern Idaho.
Don't feel bad about no chapter near you, there isn't one near me either. If you visit here often enough, you won't miss not having a local chapter too much.

Welcome Heather,

I'm new in Oregon too and haven't heard back from any local chapters. That's okay for now. This is a nice friendly place!

Welcome Heather.. I live down here almost at the CA border.. Klamath Falls.. I am looking for a chapter here too.. ;lotsof Oregon girls but like Lillian said we are spread out.. I would love to find some farmgirls closer to meet.I have tried to start my ownchapter.. so far I cannot get committed gals to join.. Maybe in the Spring. I do get up there to Portland area Woodburn often...always on my way to Washington when I go visit family & friends we stay at my Dh familys home. I am going to the MaryJane Farm Fair in July.. maybe you will join us.
