I grew up in the city and my farm cousins called us 'city slickers' all the time. We visited them on summer vacation and rode their horses until our hides were raw!

I grew up, married, raised a family of five and after years of being single I met and married a wonderful man, who had a small farm. I love it and we love it when the grandkids visit.

We raise miniature Irish Dexter cattle, chickens, turkeys and have farm dogs and barn cats. We enjoy growing corn, tomatoes, watermelon and musk melon (canteloupe). Of course, strawberries, and other fruits from our fruit trees are so good, especially right off the vine. Nothing like a hot, sweet nectarine fresh from the tree.

The pasture is beginning to grow now that spring is here and we will begin to live more outdoors. Love it on my small farm. :-D :-D
