Welcome, I’m Jami!

Notes From the Farmhouse is your quiet encouragement for a simple homemade life, delivered right to your inbox. After sharing on my website An Oregon Cottage since 2009, and changing it over the years to follow the dictates of an algorithm instead of my heart’s desire, this newsletter is a return to my roots, a place to authentically share all the parts of an intentional, creative life. My goal with this newsletter is to be a positive place for the in-between moments, the tiny joys, the things that don’t always become full tutorials or recipes, but still shape our lives with the beauty we crave.

Creating a life you enjoy that blesses others is important, for them and for us! This will be the heart of this newsletter - to share all the good, often slower and less convenient, things that bring joy to a simple homemade life. In this sometimes crazy world of things that can get us down, my hope is to be the email you look forward to getting, knowing that you’ll find things to see, create, read, and think about that can be our “tiny acts of resistance work” towards creating a life we envision.
