This Blog is about sustainable homebased agriculture, local southern WV families and culture, and life. I will try to talk about things that are current and pressing and maybe some jokes or some serious conversation. I want this blog to be a biographical periodical and a teaching tool. I'd like to have tons of followers and would also like to be able to help my community. Add this site to your favorites and You can see Trail-Blazer my donkey as a favicon.
