Categories: Friday Farm Favorites
My name is Tonya, and I grew up on a 300-acre farm in rural Virginia that has been in my family for over 100 years. After graduating from college, receiving my master’s degree in speech and language pathology, and living and working in a small city for six years, I decided to return to the place of my childhood. Here, in this rural area, on this patch of green, where for four generations my family has farmed, gardened, and lived, I, too wanted to be a part of this continuity. As a fourth generation farmgirl, I have many interests that not only include, but also go beyond the basics of farming, gardening, sheep and chicken-keeping. It is all of this and more that I plan on sharing in this blog.

Thanks, Ritu. It’s such a beautiful morning here. There’s a lovely stand of volunteer sunflowers that was beckoning me to take a stroll in the meadow. A delightful way to start the day. Happy weekend! 🍁

Tonya, I have a post coming up with this quote, I found it on the Old Farmer’s Almanac. Hope you won’t think I took it from you, just shared it as well as another one on a colorful sky photograph. No leaves on the tree branches, in my photograph.
