Hello Farmgirls:
I just started reading this part - so tell me the scoop. Is this like a farmgirl - "keep your spirits up" site? If so - I would love to join in the fun. Does anybody need a parther? is there a price limit? Do make, buy, the items for the care packages., How often do you mail things?
Let me know if I can be part of this group.

Viola - this exchange is based upon each new issue of MaryJanes magazine. The idea was to take something from the mag that catches your eye, and make come up with a simple gift to send to your farmgirl friend, something that would correlate to an idea in the magazine. It does indeed keep the spirits up of all who participate. I am not an organizer or anything, I just saw your post as I was getting ready to post. I have a person I send to.....the person you send to is not the same as the one you receive from. So if you want to join in, you ask for a person to send to you and a person to send to.
The "person I received from" had to drop out, so I am open in that part if you want someone to send to! Then you would just need to find someone to send to you! Sounds complicated, but it is simple. And fun!

Just to clairfy on the sending and receiving part. It doesn't matter if you send to and receive from the same farmgirl. It started off one sending to and receiving from someone different. But, there are to many now to do that. So most newbies that sign up can send to each other. Makes it a lot easier that way.

Thanks Shari I'll let Dumplin know. She has been all over trying to find something else to go with what she is working on. And, finally found just the right added touch. You are going to be surprised what she can do. She loves your letters too.
You gals are all doing just fine working together teaming up to be farm friends. Wahoo!!!

Marsha, my farm friend package arrived!! You send the nicest things. The tote bag
is awesome, and I will most definitely be using it. And I will be just like a little
kid watching my sunflower and basil seeds sprout. And my litte heart pillow. And thank
you for the Mary Jane little candys. I am chewing on one as I type. Hugs!!! |

Thank-you so very much CJ for every lovely gift. Love the flour sack apron and the tote. I'll plant my sunflower seeds over the weekend. And I needed more note cards.
Hugs,

Hey, sisters!! How exciting is this??? There's just about nothing I love more than good, ole'fashioned, happy snail mail! I'm sooo in for this. :) I'm curious - where do I send my email address? I read the instructions, but am a leetle confused on that aspect only (however, it's getting late and I've been baking and giggling with a friend all day long.... I may just have switched off!). Can't wait to play!

Joyride on the learning curve! |

Marjean!! I loHve my package of primitive pillows, little pots of herbs, and mary jane candies! I was so excited when I received it in the mail!!! My spirits were lifted so high! I have dial up internet and my phone was out of order for a week from a thunderstorm. I wanted so badly to get on here and tell you that I got your package! I just finished yours and CJ's gifts... they took me a little bit... I hope you like them! I just have to write you each a little note, then they will be off in the mail. Farmgirl hugs!!!
