It so funny we are all so proud to be "farmgirls"...I can remember getting ready to do out on Friday...hummm ..or was it Sat nights when I was a teen and my mom saying with discust "Only farmers go out/into town on Fri (Sat) night" Se how good I listened I can't even remember what nite it was??? LOL. Also my first hubby's (I am widowed from him) sisters use to downplay their country roots totally...dressed like city girls etc, etc despite the fact their Dad made a living working in a mine and riding the rodeo!!! Imagine!!

It really IS interesting how we can look at "farmgirl-ness," isn't it? I know that for some people it might conjure up a vision of something...well..less than desirable, but for me - and it seems like for a lot of us! - it brings to mind something REAL, something dig-in-the-dirt GOOD, and something so SIMPLE, it's beautiful. And since being a farmgirl is a condition of the heart, anyone can join in the fun! I just love it. MaryAnn - it's pretty neat to be proud of it, isn't it?!?!?!
XOXO, Libbie

This is my 1st time on this site and I never knew there were so many people that feel the way I do about being a Farm Girl. I have felt that way since I was a kid and yet have never lived on a real farm (my fantasy), but have been an avid gardener for many years. My grandmother's family were farmers, though, and I know I have those family genes. It's such a pleasure knowing I have so many soulmates out there.

Hi Rebecca! Welcome to the forums!
Isn't the forum such a great place! The ladies here have such a wealth of knowledge, enthusiasm, and love! I spend a bit of time here everyday, but when life really gets me down I _have_ to have some time here online with my farmgirl friends!
Also if you want, you should stop by the Welcome Wagon thread. It's a great place to introduce yourself and let people get to know you a bit!
Hugs!

I have been telling everyone that I am a farmgirl on this trip! It is so much fun to be able to tell people about MaryJane and her farm. I even met a fellow farmgirl here in town that just didn't know about the forum! Peggy has been a family friend for a long time. She is an amazing gormet cook and I even remember going to her daycare when I was younger. She has an amazing garden and grows MaryJanesFarm Garlic! I guess she had an amazing crop last year and her garden is doing great this year too. She says she orders from the Farm all the time, but just hasn't ever seen the forum.
My dad works for a company that is run by a husband and a wife. I got to meet them yesterday and they are really sweet. Guess what- they live on a farm too! So we got to chat about the farm again. I also got to tell a family friend who doesn't live on a farm, but loves to garden and her mom lives on a ranch.
It has been a great trip so far and I can't wait to share MaryJanesFarm with more people!
Hugs

I love how we are all farmgirls at heart, no matter where we live, or where we are on our journies in life. I have a very small yard but love playing in the dirt. For this season of my life, it is where my dh and I are at. I am going to figure out how to have 3 chickens. Have wood for coup and will be working on it with dh in a few days. How fun will that be. You build it and they will come, isn't that the phrase.....
