Who We Are



The past few years, the area where I live, Crawford County, Ohio, has seen a wonderful explosion of younger families who are embracing the joys and challenges of living off the land. Because of them, amazing things are happening which have been embraced by our community. Farmer’s markets have been created and on-farm stores have opened. Families dedicated to growing organic produce and naturally raised meats are meeting the public’s needs for locally raised foods. And at the heart of this movement are the women.



Ohio Country Journal is my attempt to share the essence of farm life, focusing on, but not limited to, women. My goal is to bring you into our circle of friendship by inviting you to share your stories and experiences with us. You don’t have to be a full time country woman to benefit from joining us; you just have to be you.





The full-time country women featured in Ohio Country Journal are an inspiration to anyone who dares to follow her dreams, whether it is to live in the country or to bring the country life-style to their urban neighborhoods.

Full-time Country Woman Profile, Sue Rothhaar, part 1

 
 
 
This picture is of Sue Rothhaar, who lives in the country near the village of Chatfield, Ohio. Why is she standing in front of a stained-glass window?
 
I am on a tight schedule today and don't have time to reveal the answer, as it is my mother's birthday and I'll be spending part of the day with her along with my regular "work".  So, stay tuned to this blog to read Sue's story beginning tomorrow, because you will not believe your eyes when you see what she created.
 
*hint* we are still celebrating National Quilt Month.
 
 Her story of love and devotion is an inspiration to us all! I guarantee it will touch your hearts.
