A hearty welcome from down south, Austin that is. Being also in Texas
with our sizzling summers I would love to share info on successful
beardeds with you. We have a humble little farm in the blacklands east
of IH 35 northeast of Austin. I am quite positive you will find the
folks here friendly, knowledgeable, and often humorous (in a good way).
