About Me:
I grew up in northeast Ohio. Born in Holmesville,Ohio--Amish country. I was raised on a working farm,with a father who taught me many things and I did field work. I was the oldest and my father had GIRLS. My husband and I amended gardens in Prescott,totally organic,companion planted and our project was to manage the land with the idea of rotation and how much the land would produce per square foot. In five years we had so much produce that we had all of our needs met, plus the neighborhood, as well.
