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.

Take Me Out to the Ball Game!




Yesterday's Heart of the City car show event was a success! The weather was nice, Mansfield had a lot of good-lookin' cars to photograph, and Niabos Gallery was on fire selling our art. 

and then....

Off to Crestline to attend the wedding reception of m nephew Kevin and his new bride, Megan. It was nice to relax, see the happy couple, and visit with family members.

Today is a much deserved day away. Jim's birthday is Tuesday. He does not want to take that day off, and decided that he'd like to go to Cleveland to an Indian's baseball game today. I love going to the ball park, so I am happy with his decision. And, who knows...since the game is early afternoon, maybe we'll have time to stop at some nature spots on the way home.

The sky is an incredible shade of blue, we both are looking forward to "Getting out of Dodge", so I believe that this is going to be a great day!
