    This would be a great way to spend my 40th birthday, with other farm women, sharing ideas and thoughts.

    Thanks for the invite, Ellen!

    Drat-I am not a Farm Woman. I even neglected to get someone to water my tomatoes for the month of August….. But I would love to meet more of the wonderful women that I met this past “Be Well” weekend. No need for me to stay at the Clarion: I could walk there!
