Hi there! I am so excited to be a part of the Farmgirl Sisterhood!
My family and I have moved from urban southwestern Ohio to Northeastern Missouri in pursuit of our dream of owning a small self-sufficient farm. In Ohio we had 3/4 of an acre on which we grew two gardens, a small orchard, and raised backyard chickens and rabbits. That self-sufficient lifestyle has lead us to our homestead in Missouri. The past six months have been a whirlwind as we remodeled our house, planted gardens, acquired a flock of Americauna layers and three turkeys. We will be adding rabbits, Scottish Highland Cattle and some type of milk cow to our homestead in the spring! We are very excited to be living our dream!
May your life be filled with many blessings,
Jill |
