I can't tell you all how wonderful it was to find the magazine and now the website. This is just what I have been looking for: women who find life exciting, wonderous, and energizing. I must say I don't currently live on a farm, but I do my best to make my front yard look like I do. I do live in a small agricultural-based community, however living gently and eating well still mean "don't get in a bar fight and bring me the 2# steak. I was raised on a farm, and will go back to a farm just as soon as $$ allow this to happen. I currently restore quilts for sentimental people. I am also a teacher. I love living life! Looking forward to meeting all of you! Thanks already!

To live without farm life is merely existing, to live with farm life is living life to it very last experience. |

OK, I have now been a member for approximately 24 hours! I have already met a woman who lives just 6 miles south of me, made arrangements to give a lonely book a home, and spent nearly 3 hours reading about all you wonderful people. Thanks so much!
