Friday Farm Favorites: Autumn Days
“The leaves fall, the wind blows, and the farm country slowly changes from the summer cottons into its winter wools.”

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.
Love your photos Tonya! As always!@

Your photos are beautiful and so very peaceful. I can’t believe your temperatures are still so high. We had a little snow in the NC mountains last Sunday. John and I have been wearing sweatshirts and windbreakers for our morning walk. Hope you cool off soon.
