The Farm Chicks šŸŽŖSerena, Founder of The Farm Chicks Vintage & Handmade FairšŸ“Spokane, WA I describe it as the best weekend of the year.
(5)

In 2002, after my long-held dreams of creating a fun and happy little event to sell my vintage and handmade goods, I held my first ā€œsaleā€ in my neighbor’s barn with a handful of friends and neighbors. The sale became wildly popular and began attracting visitors from across the country and recognition in national magazines. Today The Farm Chicks Vintage & Handmade Fair fills the Spokane County Fair

grounds the first full weekend of June each year and features hundreds of creatively and carefully curated spaces filled with vintage and handmade goods. Many describe it as a bucket list event, magical, inspirational, and one of the best events of its kind in the country.

This is really hard, but here goes. I’ve lived with a secret for many years and I’ve never shared it because I don’t want to be treated differently, like I have a handicap, and not taken seriously. Right now my business has a lot of exposure, I’m getting a lot of views, and I think that sharing my story can make a difference for others like me. Did I cry before deciding to finally share? Yes. Will I regret this tomorrow? Definitely yes, but here goes. I have autism.
Asperger’s, if we’re going to be completely transparent, even though it’s not really called that anymore. Autism Spectrum Disorder. (That name sounds terrible to me. A disorder!) It’s a spectrum and those of us who are on it exist in a very wide range, and it affects all of us differently. A therapist once said when you meet someone with autism, you’ve met one person with autism. We aren’t to be stereotyped or grouped. We aren’t weirdos or freaks.
Navigating life on the spectrum can be really hard for me. I struggle with new things, social interactions, have a strong sense of fairness and justice and when that’s missing, it affects me in a big way. With every ounce of me, I want everyone to have a chance. It also affects me in great ways too. I can hyper-fixate and make things great because of it. I have a strong sense of empathy. I feel things deeply.
There’s a million more things that exist on my highlight reel of what makes me… ME but that’s not important right now. I’m doing this for and I hope by sharing, it might change your perception of autism.
Love, me

Sometimes I see little moments that are worth capturing. Then I’ll look back on my camera roll and think oh! the garland auto shop with the old Santa on the rooftop that I bet they’ve been placing up there every Christmas since they’ve operated and oh! The Woman’s Club looking so lovely dusted in snow! and oh! the Duncan Gardens are so regal, even in winter.

Autumn scrapbook reminiscing about life moments I’ve squirreled away. It’s been a rainier than usual autumn. With it cool outside and the house feeling cozy, I start thinking about special treats. This weekend I made some pumpkin bars and we shared them with some neighbor friends. I love that this time of year brings us inside and closer together.
