Potato Harvest

Volunteers brought in a fine crop today at Johnson's Backyard Garden, an organic farm just five miles east of downtown Austin. The Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) program serves 450 families year-round with fresh, organic vegetables, herbs and flowers. Starting 3 years ago with just 10 families, it has quickly grown to become the largest CSA in Texas. (more potato harvest photos)

First Tomato

Here's the first tomato from my Texas garden. Amazing. In Wisconsin I wouldn't dare set out a tomato plant before May 10th, the average last date for frost. But this cutie is ready to eat already!
