hi there,
i am an urban farmgirl living in Ottawa, Ontario Cananda. I grew up in the country and married an 3rd generation urban farmer so we live in the city. I have two kids, a son 3 years old and a daughter 4 months. I am an excellent knitter, sewer and baker. I won second place in my local harvest festivals apple pie contest this year! I also picked a tonne of concord grapes this summer and canned the tastiest batch of grape jelly. I am feeling really motivated to start growing some food and keeping some chickens this summer.
ok, looking forward to getting to know y'all. |
