Site news, updates, suggestions, and announcements.

We’re excited to welcome everyone to our new website, Hilltop Farm Forum. This forum is a revival of a community we started around 20 years ago. For the most part, the valuable information and welcoming spirit remain unchanged.

While we couldn’t transfer all the original data due to platform incompatibility, we were able to restore much of it manually from a backup, piece by piece. It was a labor of love, and we’ve put a lot of effort into reformatting and organizing the content so it’s accessible for everyone today.

We encourage all who share our interests to register, introduce yourselves, and join the conversations. Share your, photos, your own stories, ask questions, and help us build a supportive, informative community. Registration is FREE!

If you’re new and have questions, please check our “FAQ” link at the top left of the page. If you need further assistance, you can always reach us through the “Contact us” link at the bottom of the page.

We’re glad you’re here and look forward to growing the Hilltop Farm Forum community together.

Many of the posts have pictures with them. We hope you enjoy them.

We have created some ranks for the members, but invite members to suggest some ranks and post counts. We will make polls for members to vote for their favorites.
