On our Friday trip to the bookstore, I stumbled upon a new publication from the makers of Hobby Farms magazine. I thought it was awesome, (there was even a story on a family in Williamsburg, VA, not far from us that are raising chicken on their small suburban lot) and wanted to share it with my other city dwellers that are searching for a simpler life, right where they are in the city. If you get a chance, stop by your local bookstore and check it out. Tons of usable info, that you don't have to be on 100 acres (or even 1 acre) to put into practice right away. There's also more info on the website and you can take a peek at the pages inside the mag
I'm a wannabe in every sense of the word. I wanna be good enough to make it to heaven, but Jesus died because I will never be. I wanna be a mom of ten living on a farm in the middle of nowhere, training my girls to honor God & their husbands, by being content, happy homemakers...yet God has seen fit to bless us with the opportunity to help rear for Him two boys (22 and 12), in the middle of suburbia ;) I wanna be a helpmate to my husband in every way possible, yet more often than not, I'm in his way, lol. I wanna be the perfect parent, that raises perfect children, yet I am constantly humbled by the fact that only He is perfect, and I must allow him to lead. I wanna be the ultimate caretaker of my temple, and the pinnacle of health to all around me, yet no amount of healthy eating/exercise keeps me from dropping to my knees often, in need of healing from the Great Physician. I could go on and on about the the things that I am trying to be, but I invite you instead to come and join me as I travel on my path toward virtue... ~Proverbs 31:10-31~
