The Farm Journal




Goat kisses are my golden prize.

Today Bobby Hicks turns 75, and folks from all over the south have come to clap their hands to him, to pick and play with him. Madison County is a special place. Folks that have been here building the way, folks new to town with brash and new fresh ways. We all come together somehow.

The gossip is fucked up though. I wonder how to navagate the next 50 years of my life as a resident of a small mountain community.

With style, grace and avoiding stepping in cow patties.

Gossip is the best bit. That's how you become a true blue celebrity in Big Pine.
