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.

The wooly gang is soon to be shaved off its wool perhaps? They look magnificent all fluffed up with fleece.😊

Thanks, Garfield. We’d love your help! Our shearer tells us that their internal temperatures acclimate in about 24 hours, of course, the they have a barn for shelter. And, we always spoil our sheep with extra grain! 🙂🐑

Hello! Thank you so much for letting me know. I wasn’t aware this was happening. I’ve encountered this issue with other blogs. Maybe it’s just a WordPress issue that will be resolved soon. Many thanks for visiting…and “liking” our woollies. 🙂
