Life on the farm...so who are "she and I" anyway?


Welcome to my new blog! My name is Ashley, I'm the proud owner of Rivermont Farm, Inc. in Lyerly, Georgia. Where on earth is THAT you may ask yourself? It's a tiny town about an hour south of Chattanooga. Granted moving here from Atlanta in 2002 was a bit of a culture shock, I enjoy the beauty of the land here and the small town life.

I decided to start a blog for a bit of an inside look at life on the farm. A little bit about who I am, and who "she and I" are! I was born in Atlanta in 1975. I'm living my lifelong dream of running a successful horse farm. I'm a single mom with the most amazing daughter, Gracie. She will be 8 in May.

Each day I learn something new about life. The pros and cons of self employment, the challenge of being a single parent and self employed in a world that is not always kind, but through it all I know I am blessed. I know God put me where I am now because He has a plan, and I'm hoping to make Him proud in all I do. I know that ultimately I want to make a good difference in the lives around me. I'm looking forward to sharing what life on the farm is like for Gracie and I. Life is good, and I know the best is yet to come.

Thanks for stopping by and check back often!
