I keep seeing all these wonderful blogs about reasons to date a farmer and I absolutely love reading them! I love my farmer and love being reminded of all the simple things he brings to our relationship.
Then one day I got thinking and said to myself, “I’m a darn catch! Why isn’t anyone writing about how amazing farmGIRLS are to date/marry?”. So here I am. I’m going to give you 15 marvelous reasons to date a farmGIRL.
1.) We’re down to earth. We don’t get worked up about our shoes getting a scuff or our hair being out of place.
2.) We can be dirty. We’re not afraid to work alongside you and get right in the dirt. Our fathers didn’t give us the option of staying in the house to braid hair—we were right alongside him, getting just as dirty.
3.) We can also be clean. We aren’t afraid to look gorgeous. Just because we know how to drive a tractor doesn’t mean we don’t know how to do our hair and makeup. We still like to have nice things and look our very best. When we go out in public people don’t say, “That girl’s a farmer”. No, they say, “I could look that good if I tried”, because they’re jealous.
4.) We’re great cooks. Most of us had to cook alongside our mothers growing up. Being a farm girl doesn’t mean you’re always outside. We learned our grandmother’s recipes and we can cook for an ‘army’.
5.) We are caretakers. Taking care of our animals on our farms came naturally. We have a natural motherly instinct.
6.) Farmgirls are strong. We’re tough mentally and physically.
7.) We still need a man. We may be tough and aren’t afraid to get dirty, but we still need a man in our lives. We love to be taken care of and have someone to be proud of us.
8.) Farm girls have great taste. We’ve been trained on quality our whole lives—from our tractor, to our cattle, to our truck. We always have the best. So, if you’re dating/married a farm girl consider yourself a ‘catch’–we don’t settle for anything other than an outstanding man.
9.) We’re not shy. You may think this is a bad thing, but it’s not. We aren’t afraid to stand for what we believe and who we believe in. We stand for what we believe is right.
10.) We come from good families.
11.) We’re motivated. We strive for many things in life and continue to work towards every goal. (Even if that goal is just to get all the laundry done.)
12.) We’re someone to be proud of and not embarrassed to call ‘yours’.
13.) We can make any situation fun. When you grow up on a farm you learn not to take things so seriously all the time. We know how to loosen up and realize that life goes on.
14.) We’re organized. On the farm you knew where your tools were and you knew what shed all the tractors were in. We like to know where things go!
15.) We always know how to keep a smile on our face. Whether it’s a bad day on the farm or the loss of a loved one, we always keep our glass half full.
The farmer and myself! Not everyday is perfect, but we make every moment perfect! 🙂

Some of us farmgirls, though, are just waiting for the chance to have a good ol’ farmboy who knows how to treat us right.
Look me up if you’d like Bekah B, I’m on Facebook would be happy to get to know a nice farm girl
Maybe some of us didn’t grow up on a farm, but had grandparents that were farmers.I loved that way of life. So I married a farmer!! I’ve made a good farm wife, I can hunt, cook, clean and take care of the livestock. I love farm life!!
This is so funny. As a farm girl myself I agree! Well done.
I married a ‘farmgirl’ and I can testify to the truth of what you say.:-)
I was born a farm girl and am proud of it!
I do have to agree, farm girls just always seem to be cool and down to earth. They are hard for me to find anymore though, being in the city and all.
I love your reasons because every single one of them rings with truth!
[…] 15 Reasons to Date a FarmGIRL. […]
LOVE IT, Kellie! I left the farm eons ago but for the 40yrs and counting of our marriage I’ve been the grass-mower, wood-splitter (3 cords a yr w/ sledge and wedges), tire-checker, car washer, gutter-cleaner, snow-shoveler, bread-baker, laundry hanger-outer, etc in our family. Gotta admit, I DO sound like a catch! (And I’m still a size 8.)
I’m just waiting for a good ol’ Christian farm boy to REALIZE that, as a farm girl, I’m such a great ‘catch’. Lol
