Dear Friends,
It has been brought to my attention that The Farm Chicks, Inc. has some concerns that this BlogSpot is meant to gain from, or benefit from their trademarked name. I apologize for any misunderstanding. This blog spot was developed by 5 friends that simply hoped to encourage like minded women to relish in this wonderful, farm fed lifestyle. We plan to keep our blog spot, but with a name change. We will now be Farm Girls on the Loose Gazette. I hope you will continue to visit us.

Merry (belated) Christmas and happy new year to you all!!!! It's been a busy season around here with the holidays and such and now I find myself with a few spare minutes and a desire to blog about my sweet little garden addition from this summer....ain't she a beautiful thing? Outside it's cold and snowy and not at all garden type weather but inside my head it's a warm summer day so I thought I'd share my latest creation and maybe inspire some of you to plan one for your garden next summer. It all started with a deep desire want need for fresh and yummy tomatoes and it ended with this little raised and fenced garden bed. My beloved chickens (or "dirls" as they are also referred to as) also had a hankerin' for fresh tomatoes so in order for us all to get along and play nice together, I felt it only best to protect my tomatoes from the ever curious and hungry flock! It's a tight squeeze with just enough room to get in for weeding and harvesting but it's also just too cute for words and I couldn't be happier with it. The chickens, however, were not so happy with it...but they forgave me after I promised to share some of the yummy goodness from within! Not bad for a pile of "rejected" fencing and scrap wood, eh? Happy gardening friends!!
