I enjoy all the good diy ideas
I love the beautiful photography. It’s dreamy. (Holly in Kentucky)
It was the first time reading your magazine. I was amazed at how much thoughtful reading there was to be had. Loved it. Sending away for the herbal product booklet, as I love herbs, always have. Next, I would love to win this wonderful book with pens to share with my grandson, who is 6 years old. He is like a sponge and loves new activities. Thank you for a most creative new outlet.
I love to read your magazine , cover to cover. Such terrific ideas! I am looking for a small farm to have goats and after seeing your little cow I may have to add that too.
I just received my first issue of MaryJane’sFarm~Love it! One thing I particularly enjoy is that is very clearly written, easy to read and very easy to understand…with the reading of each page there exists and “AHA!” moment. One where I decide there is something I want to try, or a solution to a common problem, or a product that is incredibly helpful and ingenious, and (my favorite) inspiration to try something I’ve not done before! Bravo!!
I love MaryJanesFarm! I’m the last in a succession of women in my family who get to read it so the recipes are mostly clipped out but I love the how-tos. My family thought I was going crazy when I started asking for power tools for Christmas!
I was surprised and delighted that so many articles “spoke” to me. I used 12 post-it notes to mark pages for re-reading. I believe my favorite article was on the uses of apple-cider vinegar. Also, (I know you only wanted one favorite item) I really like how the articles focusing on food items are not pushing calorie watching and dieting in my face. This is such a refreshing departure from traditional women’s magazines.
I am new to the magazine in fact just called in to become a subscriber today. I enjoy learning about new ways of cooking and other people and how they have changed their life styles after learning tips from the Mary Jane.
The wonderful possibilities!
I broke my colllarbone 17 days ago so the article I Eat for Calcium was helpful and perfectly timed. Thanks, MaryJane!
I love the spunky attitude. I love the crafts and recipes and the homesteading tips. But, strangely enough, perhaps one of my favorite parts of the magazine is the feel of the paper. So many modern magazines are printed on thin, glossy paper but the feel of the magazine is lovely 😉
Mmmmm- One thing I like about Mary Jane’s Farm. You make it difficult! If I am forced to name ONE thing I love it would have to be the delivery of my magazine! What a wonderful way to be cheered up with the delivery of each new arrival of my magazine. What a fountain of information and ideas. I smile as I walk away from my mailbox and all day long. Thank YOU.
Love love love your magazine. Everything from organic gardening to glamping.
The thing I like about Mary Jane is the whole thing. Best part would have to be the letters from people; I love reading about so many different things. Thank you for an awesome magazine.
It’s hard to pick one thing I like about the magazine. I guess it would be learning what women are doing & accomplishing.
I just bought my very first issue of your magazine!! I love it and can’t wait to buy the next issue!! I love the craft ideas: making the fabric robe!! Your magazine is so creative and positive!! I truly love it!! Keep up with the great fun work!! 😀
I’m like the others in the fact that it’s really hard to pin down just one thing about Mary Janes Farm that I like! I’ll just say that in the most recent issue I really, really loved the “camp like a girl” piece! It took me back to my childhood days of camping with my family. Really awesome magazine.
Inspiration!
The pictures 🙂
I love the whole magazine. I like that there are ideas for crafts and homekeeping, and I love the recipes. Your magazine fills a unique niche that other magazines don’t address.
My first look at Mary Janes Farm. Mmm! What not to love? I enjoyed the Farmgirl Picks, the recipes that I can’t wait to try, and of course the home made apple cider vinegar. Can’t wait til my next issue!!
I love all the information on how to do things naturally. “Eat for Calcium” , “Redefining Clean”, & organic choices. I look forward to every issue.
Maryjane takes me back to the days of growing up at my grandmas house and helping her in the yard, garden, quilt room and so much more! Seeing things in the magazine that remind me of grandma bring joyful tears to my eyes!
I just received my first issue and felt a sense of contentment going through the pages. I like the format of the magazine, the recipes are unique as are many of the ideas and projects. I was also very happy to see some suggestions for safe cleaners.
When i open your magazine I immediately smile. I feel all warm inside and I feel as if i have a close friendship with many women of the same frame of mind.
A time to reflect on getting back to the simple way of life and how we can work together to improve our homes, our families and the care of our mother earth.
A peaceful time away from the rat race of the daily world some of us still have to be wrapped up in. I thank you for good uplifing reading material.
