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.

I’d be lost without my dog. Who else gives totally unlimited love and support? Even family and friends have days when they seem not to like us very much, but dogs are always there for that much-needed hug and kiss. I remember going through the divorce from my first husband and hugging my dog sooo hard while crying into his fur. That dog got me through, and I’ve had dogs ever since.

Thank you for sharing. I completely agree. I’ve always loved animals, especially dogs—their energy, sweet natures, enthusiasm, affection, curiosity, playfulness, and intelligence. I can’t imagine my home without them. They really bring so much joy to every single day.
