That would be a great idea. We could have Canton trade days slept overs. LOL I have found some real treasures on the what they call "junk row".

Hea TX farmgirls, I have not stopped by in quite a while. Opening up a scrapbook store outside of austin so I have been busy with that. I stopped by because Kay-the midwife has been looking for the TX chapter group. I will let her know where you all are at. I just went through Caldwell and now I see someone is from there. Hope you are all having a scrappy day!

Hi Kelley,
I know where Quitman is, our family cemetery is in Grice. We are about 30 miles straight west of Tyler on Hwy 31. I think at least an hour and a half. I'd love for you to come over here but I bet you'd have a ton of farmgirls over there that would join and we could do outings together. I just love your little quilt shop in Quitman, I've gone there for years. I bet you could find a bunch of farmgirls out of just that shop. I'm going to put the Mary Jane flyer in my local paper and see what happens. I just got the Chapter packet for MJ Saturday and have not read through it yet. Will get this one going this week. Let me hear from you one way or the other though.

Hey Ya'll! I just joined but I'm familiar with a lot of the places mentioned above. I didn't know Sand Creek moved to Caldwell, when she first started doing her raw milk sales, she was off H21 across from FeatherCrest (the real Sand Creek area). I really miss all that lovely Jersey milk!
I milked dairy goats (Oberhasli) for 26 yrs but finally gave it up awhile to take a steady job in B/CS. (At A&M).

Hi Martha,
We just went last week and picked up our milk. Alysha just had another baby girl so we didn't get to visit with her. I just started getting my milk from them not that long ago but my neighbor has know her for a long time and that how we started into the raw milk. I just love it! You are not that far from me. I live just south of Iola off of Hwy 39.

Hi Jennifer, John and I both work at A&M but we live on our farm about 50 miles north-east of Bryan. We raise Paso Finos! I'd love to have a Jersey, but being gone so much during the week makes it almost impossible to have a milking anything.
Iola IS close!

Hi LaVonna,
I put it on hold for just a bit. My husband and son both lost their jobs at the same time and my focuses had to be elsewhere for a moment. Ivan starts back to work on Wed. though and Sean's back in college full time, so I am refocusing on the group. I have put out lots of the Farmgirl Flyers and run an add in our local paper and have a list of possible members. It's not so easy just starting a group when everyone lives so far apart. I do have your name on the list though because I've not forgotten the sleep over for Canton Trade Days. LOL Email me your address and phone and I'll keep you informed.
Have you found any farmgirls around your area yet?
Smiles, Melody June

Hey, Melody June!! Check the Farmgirl chapter chatter. We're trying to pull together something in regards to the Heart of Texas Group and having sub-groups under that according to region .. monthly meeting up and then the whole group under Heart of Texas meets up once a year... we'd also have a newsletter to keep the state 'together' with each regions happenings. :)

Yes, I saw that. There was not a group in this area when we started looking into this months back. We all want a real group so we can meet and do things together. We are already registered with MaryJanes Farms, have our group paperwork and have started gathering possible members. If your going to have a Texas wide yearly meeting that also would be fun for us to make plans to attend.
Smiles, Melody June

Oh, melody, all groups suggested are going to be real groups. The Gulf Coast one, for instance, is going to be a real one here in this area. My thought was that Heart of Texas was almost just to keep all the chapters in connection with each other.

Great Brooke, I'm glad you are pulling this all together and clearing up the confusion. It was the TX Hotties we were told was a cyber group. But does this mean that there will be two groups here in the Tyler/Athens area, ours and another one to be called the Piney Woods group?

I don't think so, but I am not sure. I need to write you back on email. The Hotties _are_ basically a cyber group but the idea was that groups would be around the state and come together each year as the "Heart of Texas" so to speak and also have a newsletter to keep everyone in Texas in touch and in the know of what is going on around the different regions (which Heather would be in charge of). Really, if there are more than one group in a "region" - I don't really see why it would be a problem to have more than one ..if need be. I am trying to find out if there is already one here in Houston area (Gulf Coast) that I don't even know about. I just didn't think there were groups so far. I would suggest talking with Heather (catscharm74) if you would prefer it to be only one in the Piney Woods region. I haven't submitted for the Gulf Coast one yet because Caron was talking about asking about having subgroups under the Heart of Texas henhouse to try and keep it more organized and not spread out and lose touch of everyone.

Janie in Waco, we stayed at the Cotton Palace B&B while going to Homestead Heritage for canning and cheesemaking lessons. Jennifer in Bedias, I pass through there every time I go to Madisonville or going to Dallas/Ft. Worth. Martha in Normangee, I have friends that live between Normangee and Madisonville. Yehaw, Farmgirls are alive and well in the great state of Texas.
