Kara McFarland
My name is Kara McFarland. I was born and raised in St. Louis, but I’ve called Knoxville home for 12 years! I’m a recovering TV news career-woman, turned SAHM. I live in South Knoxville with my husband, our beautiful daughter Navy (and two very naughty fur babies). We love Knoxville’s urban wilderness, Ijams Nature Center, local breweries and backyard play dates!
