“To get rid of pesky weeds, pour simple BOILING WATER over the weed, and it’s like magic … gone in no time at all!”
and Cheryl Stanley, who said …
“I like to grow milkweed for the monarch butterflies. They are the true meaning of summer for me in Indiana. I had never seen one before 2011, when I moved here. This year, I have been collecting a lot of seeds and learned about herbalism. I made my first goldenrod infusion. So exciting! I love your magazine and all the support of farmlife and women.”
Congratulations, Colleen and Cheryl! Watch for an email from the farm.
Thank you to all the women who responded with such lovely comments. I thoroughly enjoyed reading them!
Congrats! I love that tip!
I discover Mary Jane’s products at a country restaurant and nursery in Nashville Indiana. She had a few dresses made by Mary Jane. I began my search and discovered the magazine. I love all the receipts, stories, and even the wonderful advertisements. I’m not a big magazine person but this is my favorite reading of all time. I see a lot and would love love love flour sack fabric. It’s so beautiful.
Today I bought my first Mary Jane’s Farm magazine at Barnes and Noble- I love it!! And inside was an article about Tasha Tudor, who my friend, Joy, is a big fan of. I’m mailing this one to Joy, and going back to the store and buying another one, for me! This magazine is so nostalgic, with beautiful photos and drawings.
