Hello. Nice to meet you! I’m Dana.
I’m a Pacific Northwest native. However growing up, I spent several summers back on my mother’s family dairy farm in Missouri where I developed some pretty strong ‘rural roots’ as I call them. We got to raise baby chickens and heifers and swing from the rafters in the barn loft. It was a hoot and some of the fondest memories I have growing up.
So it’s not a surprise that Urban Farming became a passion of mine. I always thought I’d have ended up on 20 acres somewhere – but life happened and that didn’t! So I about 20 years ago, I started bringing the country to the suburbs and started raising chickens and put raised beds in my front yard.
So here I am now and there’s quite a movement of lots of people doing that! I’m so glad to have more company over here on the Urban Farm side of things.
I’m just starting this blog and site – so please excuse some under construction areas as I get things put together!
More coming soon!
Dana
