About the host
Hosted by Teresa Cox
I love living in the mountains. Sitting on the porch, listening to the birds is one of my favorite past times. I raise chickens, quail and rabbits. My faith and church are very important to me and I enjoy our programs and singing with the praise team. Some of my hobbies are gardening, crocheting, crafts, sewing, cooking, preserving and camping. I have three wonderful grandchildren that I love to visit and spend time with. My goal is to share our home in the mountains so you can experience nature and the beautiful scenery it offers. Western North Carolina is a wonderful place to visit for its natural beauty
