NOT Southern, Ca. :)
Hello all just landed by way of Back Yard Chicken forum. Just wanted to intoduce myself and say hello. My husband and I with our 3 children currently reside in Southern Ca. We live on two acres and I live a double life. :D
Most of my friends have thought I was a little weird, up until now that is. I sew, cook, can, garden, have chickens and love to bake my own bread. Some day my dream is to live way out in the country somewhere with the ability to raise my own animals etc... Countryside is my favorite Magazine in the world. I hope to learn a ton from all of you.

Anyways, thanks ahead of time. Gina

Hi! I just joined today, too, so welcome from one newbie to another!

I know how to bake my own bread, haven't put it into regular practice, but I plan to.

I know how to sew, some. Not a lot, but enough that I could get by if needed.

I LOOOVE to cook and bake :)

My husband does the gardening, I help some times. LOL

I am working on adding fruit trees to our 7 acres.

We have goats, chickens, turkeys, two geese, and two ducks.

3 dogs and 1 cat and 3 ferrets too.

Welcome!

It is exciting to find people like myself. I have been interested in how people did things in the "old days" and I finally found my niche.

I have fun looking around on this site.

Enjoy
