© FarmgirlFare.com, the crawling with critters foodie farm blog where I've decided that what this place needs is more signage. We still have this one (which I love), there's a little sign in the barn that says SHEEP COUNTRY, and last year I couldn't resist a round metal sign that says MANURE MOVERS OF AMERICA (I can't even imagine life without my marvelous sheep manure), but now I'm thinking CHICKEN CROSSING, SHEEP CROSSING, TREAT ROOM, BIG DOGS ON DUTY, STOCK DOG AT THE READY, WELCOME TO DONKEYLAND, and of course at the entrance to the barn during lambing season, WARNING: SERIOUS CUTE OVERLOAD INSIDE. Is 20 degrees too cold to cut up a few pieces of wood and get out the weatherproof sign paint?
Susan, I've followed your blog for several years now, and can't wait to get the daily in my email... I love your writing and I love your farm, considerably bigger than ours but so like it. You are such an inspiration!
ReplyDeleteI think the Donkeyland sign should use the same type font that is used for Disneyland.
ReplyDeleteIf only I could have some chickens - too, too adorable! (Come to think of it...don't I say that about all the cuties on your farm?? Only 'cuz it's true!)
ReplyDeleteA friend referred me to your blog. I'm dieing to know where you live because I also live on 200+ acres in remote Missouri. We actually have a lot in common. I have chickens, a LGD dog (Akbash-Pyrenees mix), 7 cats, and we're looking into getting horses/mules. I also garden and cook - baking is my favorite, unfortunately. I grew up a city girl and it took most of my life to get to the country, but I love it out here. The steep learning curve is exhilerating!
ReplyDeleteLooking at your pic, I can't help but hear Paul McCartney and Stevie Wonder in my head.
ReplyDeleteDon't forget a "Farmgirl Fare Susan lives here" sign for all of us followers! ;)
