The Kitchens Garden and its farm and its blog have combined to become more than a blog and a farm and a garden. We have become a community. We call that community the Fellowship of the Farmy and I would love you to join us and become part of our daily conversation.
In the age of social media and “sharing” there are a couple of ways you can join our movement towards clean food and strong bodies.
You can join the blog. I post every day at dawn telling you all about yesterday, then I return after milking the cow and doing the chores to talk to The Fellowship in the Lounge of Comments with my morning cup of coffee. This is my treat before I go back outside to get busy on the work of the day. So you, my dear reader, are very important to me and my day.
If you would like to join the Facebook page go here: FACEBOOK
If you would like to join me on Twitter (mostly I Tweet the blog) go here: TWITTER
If you would like to join me on Pinterest (where I try to post my favourite picture of the day – and other weird stuff) go here: PINTEREST.
And now The Farmy is on INSTAGRAM – find me at cecilia_thekitchensgarden.
And most recently I have another INSTAGRAM page for my AirBnB studio apartment called Kitchens Garden Retreat. The instagram page is called kitchensgardenretreat. The retreat is open so if you would like a break on the farm just go ahead and find a date that suits.
Find The Kitchens Garden Retreat on airbnb – HERE.
Thank you so very much for joining me on my quest to grow good clean food and spread the word on how easy it really is to lead the best life you can lead and grow and eat the best food we can afford. Creating our own tiny food revolution. The epitome of grass roots!
Take care.
Your friend on the farmy,
celi
PS. When you sign up (or even if you have been signed up for ages) it might be fun for you to introduce yourself in the comments below. Only if you feel like it though… there is NO PRESSURE in the blog world. I would especially love to know where you come from (just the state or country) we have such a gorgeous range of peoples from different places.

I am from Gauteng, South Africa. The smallest Province in the country with the highest population. Our climate is sub-tropical’ish but maybe a bit more temperate due to higher altitude. I live in a townhouse and therefore live my dream existence, on a farmy with animals, vicariously through you. I read this fabulous blog with my lunchtime coffee everyday. I don’t blog but through the Fellowship have discovered a whole new world of extremely interesting people and lifestyles. Laura
I’ve also been here for a long time, and it’s lovely that I get to start my day here. I have started to recognise some of you farmy friends and love the idea that there might be links for me to get to know more. I’m either in Vancouver, BC Canada, or Northmoor, Oxfordshire UK, (and that is why I usually put cute “s”s and extra “u”s in my words.) 😀
I’m an wise old hippie from the east coast who transplanted to Kansas in my 40’s…. Total culture shock.. And now, I’ve been here almost 30 years!! Unbelievable!!!. But, hey, Bloom where you’re planted! Right? I read your adventures and thoughts from the Farmy every morning and smile…. Life is good! A little difficult sometimes, but, on the whole, good. Thank you so much for sharing your delightful point of view. It’s refreshing and much appreciated..
I missed signing my name! So sorry….I am one of the least anonymous persons I know!!
I am from Wellington NZ, I live in Detroit Michigan now. I have 1 cat and a vege garden. I love reading about your life on the farmy. I would love to have some animals in my large back yard, chickens would be good, but as the local have rules that don’t even allow me to have a clothes line, chickens would definitely cause a riot.
Hi Everyone! Chiming in from Milan, Italy where I read the Kitchens Garden every day and get my “fix” on the natural life that I crave even though here it’s quite the opposite—all urban and cobblestones and Italians chattering and fashion. I’m American and I came here, as many do, for the sake of love, and never went home. Am raising two bicultural girls who also love the blog with my lovely, Italian husband. I’m so happy to meet you all, and enjoy every single comment you all make to Celi’s beautiful blog. Thanks to her and to you!
Also joined a long time ago… Saying hello from Manhattan, Kansas, US of A. A town known as “The Little Apple” 😉
I joined some time ago when I realized how much reading the Farmy news meant to my day! I live in San Diego, in extremely sunny Southern California, currently home to too many fires and drought. I love to read about the rain and cold weather you have, dear Celi, and wish it were easier for you to be there. Love your writing and all the farmy friends. Thank you for sharing!
Hello from Philadelphia! It’s the fifth largest city in the country, so quite a contrast to your landscape. Your blog has long been a favorite part of my morning ritual. Thanks for your stories and pictures and honesty.
Welcome from Pasadena, California, USA!
I am an American…third generation native born western Coloradoan. Love your blog, read it every day and am amazed by the amount of work you have to do. All my grandparents lived on ranches so I am aware of the daily grind of the farm/ranch wife. Keep us posted!
Loving your farmy blog in East Texas 🙂
Hi I joined just over a year ago, and I have to say I love following the farmy and to read all the comments, really interesting, I hail from chorleywood in the UK. We had an awful wet winter this year lots of flooding, but weather is starting to pick up now hopefully, but you never know in the UK, very changeable, being an island I suppose.
Hello. I discovered you the day you found Marmalade. Have been enchanted with your blog and farmy ever since. We are retired and living in eastern Oregon’s high desert, referred to as Oregon’s Outback. We raise sheep, chickens and a steer or two for our use. No neighbors and town is 15 miles away. Very short growing season of only about 60 days. It is a challenge. I read your blog with my morning coffee and that is the highlight of the day.
I discovered your farmy blog while living as an English teacher in China for two years. I was horribly homesick and it made me so happy to read about your day to day life on the farm while I was in a packed, polluted industrial city with hardly any blue sky or nature to enjoy. Your blog was homey, and it got me through some lonely, difficult, often un-beautiful days.
I live in North Carolina now with my sweet border collie pup, with lots of nature to enjoy, and I still visit your blog every day. It’s still a comforting habit and I love keeping up with life on the farmy! Thank you for everything you do.
Have been following your blog for a bit. Love the photos! My children have fallen in love with Marcel and want to bring our goats inside too! We live in East Texas on 26 acres. Been here 4 yrs and wouldn’t trade it for the world. It is a salve for my soul. I raise Dexter cattle, Nubian goats, laying hens and broilers, and we also have horses. I put in a small orchard 3 yrs ago and a large garden when we moved here. I envy you with the bees. I’m terribly allergic and don’t want to push my luck. Fortunately we live in the woods and there are loads of bees for pollinating the orchard and garden here but I would love to get honey and help out with their population. I love to come in after morning chores and read your blog (and comments) to see how everyone else’s day is beginning. Keep up the good work, and oh, I want a “Sheila shirt” when they’re ready!
