Hi, my mom, Pat Randol was raised on a farm in Clarke County Iowa. Where she helped her family raise a few horses, do gardening, milk cows, and her mother raise Collie dogs. She loved the country and after she got married, my mom and dad lived in a small town where they had a back yard garden and they raised us kids. We finally got the opportunity to move to the country in Winterset Iowa. Mom and dad bought a property where we grew up and where mom owned her own little bit of heaven on 12 acres, eventually expanding to a short 100 acres. We grew up and moved away, but mom and dad stayed. Mom had many goats, many dogs and cats, 2 horses, couple dozen chickens and a fairly large garden area. In 2001 she got into raising honeybees and sold the excess honey at local farmers markets, flea Markets, online, and craft show until she passed away in October of 2021.
We grew up and had kids of our own, which mom loved dearly.
