Today’s Visitors to the Farm

A local Young Cultivators group came to the farm today to earn their “Know Your Food” badge. Our Maizy didn’t flinch even once as they all took turns milking her and learning where milk comes from.

Those little girls will remember that day all of their lives :o)

Those little farmgirls are just the cutest! How awesome is it that they got to milk Maizy! You can just see the joy in their smiles, and I can just hear them giggling!

How can I find out more about the local Young Cultivators group. We live in Moscow and that sounds like something we might like to have our children involved in. Thank you in advance and please feel free to pass along my contact info to the group coordinator.

I’ll take one of everything in this photo….adorableness!!!!! I have an old table-top cast-iron sewing machine, similar to this one. It’s a Montgomery WArds machine, one of the very first electrical ones, even though it looks like the old treadle machines. It was my grandmother’s and had three stitiches…forwards, backwards and zig-zag 😉 🙂 🙂 Love and hugs from the ocean shores of California, Heather 😉

“Out There” Merit Badge (Part 2)

Wondering who I am? I’m Merit Badge Awardee Jane (MBA Jane for short). In my former life …

do you make “Barbies” clothes, and furniture? I love the setup for the pix

Oh, is this a vintage LIly’s Sugar N Cream yarn? I love that cotton yarn. I buy that all the time whenever I go to the craft store. It’s so much fun to knit with, not to mention being a real workhorse for the home, too!!! LOVe THIS ..Love and hugs from the ocean shores of California, Heather 🙂

Whenever you find vintage yarn at a thrift store or yard sale, it’s always your lucky day! I have never seen vintage sugar and cream yarn but I’ll be on the lookout!
Awwwwww. Kids love chickens. I’ve always had one or a couple of special girls that enjoy being held. Gotta have a lap hen. They’re so sweet when they talk to you. I’d love to know what a hen has to say :o)
