Re: Belvidere, TN via Colorado Springs, CO

[Guest guest]

Hello and welcome ,First a big thank you for the sacrifices you and your family have made to serve our country! Please know how many of us appreciate it.Your husband's family farm in TN sounds wonderful. Although the Springs is a beautiful place I am sure 2012 can't come fast enough for you to be able to move to TN.From the research I have done, your area of CO seems to have a lot of farms. We plan to drive out your way this spring to shop at your local farmer's market.Again, welcome to the group.

Never miss a thing. Make Yahoo your homepage.

Hi !

You and I hail from the same areas of the country! I lived in SW

Virginia (near the NC and TN borders) for 8 years and just moved to

Colorado Springs in Oct of 2006 with my husband. We plan on moving

back to VA in 2009. The produce here is awful and it's difficult to

grow your own. Last year my garden was pummeled by hail. There is

a raw daily in Ellicot (Isle farms). I haven't started yet, but

plan on getting a share there.

and Tammy,

Thanks for your kind words!

Yes, we do have quite a few farmer's markets here; we also plan to go

this summer.

The owner of that farm will be the guest speaker at the next WAPF

meeting I wrote about in my intro post. It seems the cost of raw

milk in this area is much more than in TN. I'm very surprised at the

price difference. I checked on goat milk and it's as expensive as

cow milk! I thought it would be less?

I know about the hail; it killed a young tree in our yard last year.

3 years ago it destroyed my husband's truck and required new body

parts and a complete paint job! About $5,000 worth of damage.

Thanks for your replies!

Blessings,

Thank you!

We'll be in south central TN, just 15 minutes or so above Huntsville,

AL. Are you near Shelbyville? I looked on Mapquest and found 3

town's in TN.

Donna,

Thanks for your kind words!

Yes, it is south west of Manchester. The 'big city' there is

Winchester. Lucky you!

Our pastor left our family church in Belvidere, went to pastor in

Cookeville, and now pastors in Walling.

Blessings to you!

Welcome, !

Is it Belvidere, Tn? Is it the same one that is close to

Manchester? That is a nice area...not too far from where we are

right now. We are in Rock Island, Just outside of McMinnville, right

now, but will be moving to our farm, in Gainesboro, not too far from

Cookeville, soon. I sure can't blame you for looking forward to

coming home to Tennessee! We love it! It sounds like you have a

wonderful place to call home...

I'm sure you are right, in that the raw dairy will do nothing but

help you on your journey to better health! I hope all goes well for

you!

I appreciate the military service that your family has been willing

to give!

Thank you!

Blessings,

Donna~ TN~

You're very welcome!

Wow...your Pastor is, and has been, all around us! Lol

lol...yeah..."big city!" We are looking forward to being close to Cookeville. It's not huge, but it beats McMinnville by a mile, as far as having things we want at the grocery store, having a health food store, etc. I grew up in Nashville, but I DON'T like big cities at all. We love the Tennessee country!

I have a couple of dairy goat boarders that live in the Cookeville area. They both have children that can only drink raw goat milk. It is so rewarding to be able to help them! A friend of mine and I are hoping to start a Weston A. Price Foundation chapter there, also.

Anyway...enjoy the list!
