--I am on the road today lining up fencing for my soon-to-be-born dairy goats, visiting a dairy goat farm, and examining housing options, so please enjoy this Farmgirl Friday guest post from certified farmgirl Deb!
Happy March!
Farmgirls love anything to do with homesteading, keeping chicken's, embroidering, sewing, knitting, spinning, quilting, natural home remedies for health care and cleaning, horses, goats, cows, organic gardening and cooking, caring for their loved ones and friends and are community minded.

Our resident "FARM-BOYS ' ( Clint the Redeemed Gardner and Rob of Bepa's Garden ) bring wheelbarrow's full of good organic gardening tips to this hop and we are honored to have them join in the fun each week!

With the ' girls ' in mind, today's features are in honor of our feathered friends and will help us take even better care of them all through the year.
