Tracey McFarland lives and works on a farm in Hancock County, Tennessee with her husband, and with part time help from their three married children and their spouses. One daughter and son-in-law live within "hollerin' distance" just across the river that flows by the farm. Her son and his wife are just down the road from this daughter, and her other daughter lives over the mountain. Once upon a time in a galaxy far, far away she attended the University of Tennessee as a music student.
