I had a hard time figuring out a really warm and farming friendly coat that would work well in cold and snowy weather. I mean, I know there are lots of great coats out there by Carhartt and companies like them, but I’ve never been able to afford that. I lust after some of the stuff from Rosie’s Workwear, too, but again, too expensive for me.

I think I’ve really become a cheap Yankee, finally, after only 20 years of living in New Hampshire. Farmers are a pretty frugal bunch, though, aren’t we?

My criteria were that it had to be waterproof, warm, and I didn’t want hay to stick to it. I spend a lot of time kneeling in hay, hauling hay, and petting critters who are covered in hay.  It also must be really, really cheap. Those are some stiff requirements!
