DESCRIPTION:
A delightful true account, told with love and humor by award-winning writer Janet Farrar Worthington, of her young family’s riotous adventures on their own “Green Acres,” as two urban professionals “who had no idea whatsoever what we were doing” start a farm in beautiful Horse Oak, Virginia.. Meet Mark and Janet and their menagerie: Two young kids and a baby on the way, horses, dogs and a llama, escape-prone sheep, offbeat neighbors, and various construction workers laboring to renovate their ramshackle farmhouse
"Easy, Enjoyable Read" according to Steven Reszka. Bumble Creek Farm is touching, well-written, funny, and enjoyable book about a transitioning time in author Janet Farrar Worthington's life. As Janet and her husband move to a farm, her sense of humor takes you through the learning curve of dealing with animals, children, construction workers and odd, but nice, neighbors.

Any book that makes you laugh out loud is worth what you paid for it, right? (That's what I always say, anyway.) Well, I laughed out loud again and again while reading this, which is my definition of an excellent value.Who buys a horse or two, and doesn't stop to consider what's needed in order to feed it and care for it until they're driving the animals home? That's the kind of. Catherine Schild said Laughed, giggled, just wanted more.. This book was the most enjoyable, uplifting, fun read in a long time. Janet Farrar Worthington kept me laughing, chuckling, smiling all through her book. It's all about love of family, good friends, farm animals and finding good in every situation. I could not live in that much cold, snow, mud, under construction, pregnant and I still keep my sense of humor. She has a fine gift
