Central Texas Farmers Share the Impact of the Texas Winter Storm | Eater Austin
"It will be a long time before we recover emotionally from the trauma of 77 hours without electricity and the desperate need to keep over 200 animals alive; we thought the whole garden would be a pile of mush, but amid the brown and frost-bitten there are pockets of vibrant life. While we don’t have a vast variety of herbs and vegetables right now, we have enough to stay in business, and we’re grateful for that unexpected resilience — perhaps due to our no-till, compost-fed practices. Our vegetable box program will be back up and running in early to mid-March as we continue to rebuild." - Erin Russell
