Just a heads up, we’re going to begin pulling names from our hat, or rather a milk bucket (below are old names from past GIVEAWAYS that I keep in a basket on my desk—it seems I’ve developed a sentimental attachment to them) starting tomorrow and every OTHER day thereafter until I’ve given away FIVE books total. Stay tuned. As of last night at 5 pm, we were still cutting up all the names (541) and getting them ready for our every-other-day “pull.”
Buy props used in MaryJane’s books and magazine!
5% of profits will benefit www.firstbook.org, a non-profit that provides new books to children from low-income families throughout the U.S. and Canada.
Here’s how:
MaryJane will post a photo and a description of a prop and its cost along with a few details as to its condition here: https://shop.maryjanesfarm.org/MaryJanesCurations. It’s a playful way to be the new owner of a little bit of farm herstory.
My book arrived and I have been enjoying pouring over it chapter by chapter. It is another Mary Jane creative must read! The recipes, the stories, the PHOTOS, together make it just delightful to delve into learn about all things cow raising. If you cannot own a dairy cow, you can just vicariously wind through the pages pretending that you can. I am looking forward to trying out some of the cheese recipes this summer as well. If you are a lucky winner, perfect! If you don’t win, don’t delay in ordering this book for some delightful summer reading with a tall ice tea at hand!
Good Luck to everyone as Mary Jane and the farm starts pulling names out of her milk bucket. I just love all Mary Jane’s give aways.
Keeping my fingers crossed!
My cow will be a Jersey cow named Adorabella (Bella for short) and with my first pail of milk (how much does a pail hold, anyway?) I will drink some, pour of some cream and then make cottage cheese! And maybe mozzarella, depending on how much milk I get.
mary jane has influenced me and my friends retuning back to the farm and procucing my own food through gardening raising chickens and bees . Her books have helped me to share ideas with many of my farmstand customers.

What a surprise when I received a free copy of MaryJane’s new book in the mail today. Since we are dairy farmers it was fun to read about our profession from a fresh and informed viewpoint (and lots of practical how-to.) As an author and photographer it is so inspiring to see the lovely photos and appreciate the fine layout and quality of her books. -Another winner MaryJane!
Would love to have room for my very own bovine beauty! For now I will have to live vicariously through my friend who has three lovely ladies. I am a regular customer of Cha Cha and Lu Lu who both make wonderful raw milk. I would be thrilled to get a copy of your new book to add to my collection and I can dream on about a future that might include a lovely milk cow of my own! <3
Oh how I would enjoy a copy of MaryJane’s new book. We are receiving the magazines that have lots of great tips and helpful information. Also, MaryJane’s Farm Magazine has excellent customer service! My family has raised cattle ever since I was little. I do miss our cows and “Mama”, she sure could put out some great tasting milk! Sure do miss the good ol’ days. I would love to win MaryJane’s new book.

I am so excited about MaryJane’s new book. I have all her other ones and cherish them deeply. I just acquired a little herd of miniature Holsteins and cant wait to milk them! They are so cute. One of them is only 32inches tall! Who knew? If anyone is interested we will be selling their calves. You can contact me through my e mail at gardengatelavender.com. Or call our farm at 509-244-0767.
Yeah for miniature Holsteins!!! And backyard milk cows. I look forward to following you AND your herd. Thank you for buying my book and for loving and bringing more backyard cows into the world … making the world a butter place, one backyard milk cow at a time.
