Hi, my name is Bambi. I live in Southern Illinois, about 1.5 hours from St. Louis. I live on a 60 acre home. I am now raising a few goats, some chickens and ducks, rabbits, and dogs and cats. We are looking into getting a couple of pigs, and one cow for milking and a couple for beef.
I am wanting to live a life where I don't have to go to the store for my food. To raise my family on a healthier diet.
Can't wait to meet you all.
Bambi

Thank you for the warm welcomes. Can't wait for spring. I am trying to plan out my garden and figure out where would be a great place to plant more plants. LOL Never enough.

Hi Bambi,
I live in Maine now but I grew up in Illinois and my heart remains out on the prairie.
Glad to meet you. This is a wonderful gathering place. I'm sure you'll love it.
Warmly,
Karen

I happen to live outside a small town called Radom, right next to Ashley. About 12 miles west of Mt.Vernon. If you know where that is. And I am also sick of this cold weather, but we need it to rejuvenate the soil, so I will put up with it.

| I grew up in Ina, just south of Mt. Vernon. I am over in Caseyville now. We aren't that far from each other, less than an hour. Anyone else around these parts?? |
