In 1994, we bought an 1829 log house on a small farm in the scenic hills of southeast Ohio.  It started what seems to be a life-long repair and renovation project!  Sometimes we think, 'what did we get ourselves into!?'  After a long day when we come home to this peaceful place, we know it is worth all the effort.  More at About the Farm.

Long Time Ago Farm Blog

                      http://longtimeagofarm.blogspot.com

 

In the past, I've written stories about the antics of our donkeys and other goin's-on at the farm - the raccoon in the cellar, bat in the attic, a toe-biting mouse, the dog-goring deer, cat-eating coyotes, the car sinking in a natural spring, the great bull escape.

 

Several have told me they look forward to reading these, so I started a blog.  There isn't much content on it yet but I will be adding old and new stories, experiences, information, announcements and updates from Long Time Ago Farm and DonkeyHonk.com.  Please visit and save it to your Favorites/Bookmarks.

     Meet the Artisans

 

We have met many interesting and talented people who make beautiful things.  Here we have provided a place for you to purchase them.  Only those who provide good customer service and have high-quality goods are invited to be on this site.

 

An artisan is "one who practices a trade or handicraft, creating with skill or dexterity something in limited quantities often using traditional methods."  Every item you find on this site is handmade by someone who take pride in his work.  Take time to Meet the Artisans and browse Their Wares.  Of course, we hope you will make a purchase; you will not be disappointed.

 

Our Artisans' Calendar will be updated as events are confirmed, so please check it often.

Historic National Road Yard Sale
 

The 10th Annual Historic National Road Yard Sale will find thousands of people traveling all or parts of the 200-year old Historic National Road (U.S. Route 40), 800 some miles from Baltimore to St. Louis, from dawn to dusk, searching for treasures of all kinds.  Businesses and individuals set out their goods, fresh produce, bargains, antiques, furniture, collectibles and items strange and wonderful!  Last  year, the event was so popular, some restaurants even ran out of food to serve!

 

Put on your sturdy and comfortable shoes, pack snacks and drinks, engage some muscle (for loading furniture and large items), pocket lots of green ($$$), fill up the tank, throw some sunscreen, insect repellant, hand wipes, paper towels and a roll of toilet paper in a tote bag, and take off!

 

The 11th annual event will be May 29-June 2, 2013

     Dinky Donkey Doo!

 

Don't use just any ol' horse manure to prepare your gardens and flower beds - use Dinky Donkey Doo!  Horse apples are big and bulky; they lose their shape as they tend to splatt when hitting the ground.  Not so with Dinky Donkey Doo.  It's the most adorable poop you've ever seen.

 

If you will be in the area and would like a load of Dinky Donkey Doo, Contact Us.  Probably you will get a chance to see how it's made since our loveable Little Long Ears - four miniature donkeys - pump out the stuff daily.  We have an unending supply and are happy to share the wealth... it's FREE!

 


     Customer Testimonials

 

We love to hear from you, our customers!  Of course, compliments are wonderful; we also like to receive your suggestions.  Read what others have to say about the things we make.

 


 

 

Remember the little man on the Monopoly game cards, Moe Money?  He is now the mascot for Ebates, an online rebate center.  I've used it for about 5-6 years and have never had a problem; every three months a check is sent automatically.

 

There are over a thousand merchants on Ebates, most are very well-known (Lands' End, Sephora, AT&T, Babies-r-Us, Barnes & Noble, Disney Store, Ghiradelli Chocolate, Radisson Hotels, Tractor Supply Company, Wrangler).

 

When you register and make a first purchase, you will receive an additional $ 5.00 back.  I hope you can take advantage of it, plus their Deals of the Week and Daily Double offers!
