Welcome to FarmGirl Media! This site is for anyone with an interest in or passion for growing your own food, living a healthy and sustainable lifestyle and preserving our rural heritage through the care and cultivation of heritage livestock, heirloom produce and traditional crafts.

Self-reliance has always been an American hallmark and we’re reminded now more than ever that we can help ourselves, our neighbors and our communities by sharing our collective knowledge and supporting each other.  FARMERS ROCK and FarmGirl Media is here to make sure we keep on rockin’ the food chain!

Farm on, America!

HOW TO USE THIS WEBSITE

Want to learn more about FarmGirl Media?  Check out our ‘About‘ page.

Our ‘Blog‘ page has all sorts of helpful advice, trivia and other interesting tidbits and it’s updated regularly. You can comment on any of the blog posts. We love it when readers share their opinions, ideas and especially their photos!

‘Recipes‘ is where we post our favorite recipes and yours.  Send us your tried and true, down home recipes (with pictures).

‘Photos’ is, well, for photos!  Please send us your garden and farm pics – we want to create a snapshot of America’s small farms and we can’t do it without your help.

Local Food Scene is where we share some of the wonderful producers and products we come across. But we know that what’s ‘local’ to us (Northern California) may not be ‘local’ to you. That’s why we encourage you to become a FarmGirl Media Field Editor. Let us know what’s happening on YOUR local food scene. If we get enough entries from any one area, we’ll create a ‘local’ page just for your spot. We already have one Field Editor from Santa Cruz, California.  Now we just need to cover the rest of the country!  Help us build this website and see your name in print!  Let us know if you’d like to be a Field Editor.
