Shady Grove Farm

Sure took a long time for tomorrow to get here.😁 I got a message from someone very dear to me about my previous post. It is an unfortunate truth that most of us know someone who has to deal with cancer. She urged me to continue with posts and I promised I would but just couldn't get it done. It finally occurred to me why. It is the same reason I stopped posting on the Shady Grove page to begin with. When I cteated that page I did not realize I was creating a business page. That was never my intention. Seemed odd to me to post there even way back then. After stumbling and screwing everything up, and with help from my daughter and grandaughter, I finally, successfully created a group page. It is titled ......Rachel - Fighting the Odds. You can pull it up by typing Rachel Stewart in your search bar. Please feel free to join my group. It is an open group. I will share my story, share my ideas, things I am learning, and I will be happy to hear from anyone who wants to share. Hope to hear from you soon.❤

I just got a note that someone liked this page. I can barely believe it as it has been so long since I have done anything here. For several years I have been out of the loop. Perhaps now is a great time to come back. I intended this page to be a place to share small farm ideas, my love for animals, plants, gardening, herbs and just fun stuff. So in my effort to come back to this endeavor, I must share some news that is not happy news but please know I am NOT seeking sympathy. If anything the total opposite is true. In August of last year, I was diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer. Certainly no good prognosis here. However, I want everyone to know, I am doing great. My spirit is such that I am fighting this for all I am worth, and personally I think I am worth a lot. I am fighting, and for the time being I am winning. So, I think it time to resume what I started. It certainly gives me something worth while and rewarding to do. Maybe I can share an idea or piece of knowledge that will help someone. Maybe I can make someone laugh and brighten their day or even share something that will change someone's life. Maybe someone else is in the same or similar situation and we can uplift each other. So in my first attempt to make you laugh, it's like starting a diet, or quitting ci******es, or almost anything else I have ever tried to do.....I will start tomorrow.....lol....I had chemo today and I am tired.😂😂😂

Hi everyone, I am so amazed to be seeing anyone has even noticed this page, much less liked it. I haven't been on here in a long time. I think I should try to be doing something here. Have not been doing much business lately and actually just have not been on facebook much. After the big fire things sort of went down hill. But....I believe it may be time to get motivated again. New chicks coming soon. Gideon is doing well and looking fabulous. Maybe we can get some new baby peacocks this year.....But of course none will be as wonderful as he is.....Love to all

Just stack tomatoes, some mozzarella cheese, basil and asparagus and drizzle with some balsamic vinaigrette.

Tammy, trying desperately to upload those photos, but when I try to browse through, not all of my files are coming up. Some new way for fb to mess us up I guess. I can get to the files through my desktop, but not from fb. I'll keep trying.
