Where are ALL of Our Michigan Farmgirls? What have you been doing lately? Any projects being done for special Christmas gifts?

Hello!

I'm giving baskets with homemade jams/jellies, vanilla extract, rosemary sea salt and chai tea mix. I don't know if I'll add something else to it..

I do love it here, though the city is slowly changing to more of a big city and while in some ways it's a good thing, we also get the bad to go along with it.

I'm here! Busy making lots of projects. Just finished knitting three dishclothes someone placed an order for. Also finished a merino wool helmet liner (ski mask) for my son who's in the Army. Sunday I made a batch of rosemary lavendar goat milk soap. This weekend I hope to start my baking and candy making. I might try making another batch of soap. Df's mom is wanting some patchouli soap. I'm hoping to start a pair of socks for df which I already know won't be done in time but thankfully he's patient. We're having our Dandelion Christmas Party next week and I need to get ornamants made for that. Wow, can we add a week to the month really quick so I can get everything done? LOL

I haven't noticed too many from our side of the state, but that doesn't mean they aren't out there.

Hey, Gals.
I'm in Hartland Don't know who else is over on this side of the state. We should plan a get together in the Spring, somewhere in the middle of the state. Any ideas??

Hey there gals - We're still here East of South Haven. I've been sidetracked from FC for a while now (almost a year running around with a jamband) - We still have chickens, cats, dogs and our lonely wether is going to be joined (tomorrow!) by 1 expectant and 1 yearling, alpine girls. We are excited to have milk & make chevre. Hope the rest of you Michiganders are well :)

Jessica,Jo is in Holland which isn't too awfully far and I have in the past seen someone who was in Zeeland and I think maybe Grandhaven? I hope you find some more farmgirls close by.

I'm in Warren so on the opposite side of the state. I have a similiar problem in finding anybody close and have been having to go an hour or more north to find anybody to meet up with. Finances have been tight so I haven't been able to do that lately either.

This is a little belated, but I was just looking for other Michigan Farmgirls and found this post. I'm in Augusta, Michigan (halfway between Battle Creek and Kalamazoo), if anyone is ever wondering if there are more of us Lower Peninsula girls out there. :)

Welcome, Dawn! I'm still pretty new, so I don't know of any either, but Pickney is only an hour and forty minutes from where I live, so let me know if you find one! :)

Saw this thread and wanted to say 'HI!' from Grand Blanc. What do all you ladies have going on this hottest day of the year yet? I'm thinking ice tea on the porch ;)

A belated hello to Erin and Rustic Reb - yesterday was beautiful down in Augusta (MI not GA). I got my tomatoes and zucchini planted, cleaned up the patio, and started expanding my herb garden. Hope you ladies had a wonderful weekend! :)

Hello from Freeport, MI. My garden is finally showing life, and I am very excited. Trying to keep my new fruit trees alive, and working on some other 'summer time' projects.
Hope everyone is having a wonderful day and keeping safe.

I should, Erin. I've got a bag of grapes that I picked from the vine last fall in the freezer, still, and by the time I get to them I'll be harvesting this year's grapes! Have fun with your strawberries. :)

Hello to Kristen! I haven't been around MJF in a while, so I haven't met you yet, but we are super close! I live in BC right across from the Meijer on Columbia. Getting ready to move down the road to East Leroy soon though. It's good to see another farmgirl close by!!!!

And a big hello to all the other new Michiganders too! Maybe we should be called Michigeese as ladies because we are definitely NOT ganders :)
