Country Gals Farmette

Country Gals Farmette A Country Gal with her family Farmette, & Heritage Chickens. “Once a country girl, always a country gal at heart!”
I grew up in the country, in Colorado.

My mother raised chickens, pigs and calves given to her from a nearby feedlot. As a teenager, I remember those days of feeding the calves with the buckets that had nipples for their formula. I had a pet pig that was the runt of a litter. I called him, glut-glut. I easily got attached to animals less perfect. I married and we spent our honeymoon in Colorado, part of which was a visit with my mother at her country home. I remember waking up in the morning to roosters crowing, a hen talking in her broody talk, a squeal from a baby pig, geese alerts, and calves mooing to be fed! You see mom had a house with a side porch all along the side of house of which our room was on! I said to my husband, “Yes, Dear, this is what a Farm sounds like in the morning hours!”
Mom was a great gardener and we helped her prepare the soil, weed and pick the produce. Her whole back yard was a garden. One year she canned 50 jars of corn! My page photo is of my granddaughter, and I, showing her the 101’s of making a garden plot, when she was around 6 years old. Never to young to learn farming and never to old to still enjoy the farm life! This page will also show interests from other sources, in organic gardening methods, garden recipes, healthier eating, self- sufficiency, all things about chickens and everything with a bit of story telling. Lets share our experiences, successes and failures as we dig into our gardens, work our farms, raise our farm animals and enjoy Family and Friends throughout!
