Sounds like a good time!
I'm in my early forties, have three grown children and six grandchildren. I live on an island and raise birds. Chickens, peacock, and quail. I enjoy gardening. I am expanding my use of herbs and wild berries. On the mainland my time is spent at my boyfriends cattle ranch. Haying season is in full swing yet. I'll sign off now before this turns into a novel. Hope to hear from my sisters soon....
Don't be sorry that it's over... Be glad that it happened. |

I have the list compiled and will be e-mailing the list out as soon as my e-mail acts right. There are still a couple addresses I am missing, so if you do not receive the list, that is why. As soon as I get your address, I'll add you :) Also, if you see any typos, please let me know! Super excited about this!!!!

Hi Shannon and fellow farmgirls,
My mailing info is correct, but my user name is wrong (it's autocorrected all the time) nndairy - not nondairy. Our farm name is the Double N Dairy. It looks funny being a dairy farmer with a user name of nondairy :)

I live in Montana and 39 years young live on a farm/ranch. one daughter that is 6 school for her starts on Monday and she has to ride the bus for 20 miles one way. I like to bake and do all sorts of crafting, scrapbooking, taking pictures, making blankets,(would love to make a quilt someday). Gardening, and I have a hand full of chickens, cattle, horses, a new puppy (I forgot how much energy they have). I love getting letters and sending them out. |

I'm Rachell and I'm 42. I live in WNC, recently transplanted from SWFL after "following my bliss." I am a SAHHHM (extra 2Hs are for homeschooling and homesteading!) to 3 children. My oldest is 19, soon to be 20 and she has just left the coop to go to UNC in Asheville. At home, I still have 2 boys, ages 11 and nearly 16. We love animals and have rescued several over the years including 11 cats, a snake, and some fish.
I also keep round about 30 chickens, 4 tom turkeys, 1 quail (there was more until a raccoon came), and 2 hives of honeybees. I have also been doing my best to rehabilitate the old orchard here and grow veg in the 8 raised beds. My goal is to produce as much of my own food as possible.
In my free time (LOL) I like to read farmgirly types of books, exchange emails and or letters with other farmgirl sisters, crochet, cross-stitch and scrapbook. I am a beginner crafter, so my skills are limited but interest is high! :)
