Happy almost 4 year anniversary to TTK’s Queen B

Happy almost 4 year anniversary to TTK’s Queen Bee, Donna Longtain!
The momma, the grand momma, the green thumb, the farm hand, the seed starter, the goat wrangler, and the hardest dang worker in ATX.
For those who’ve joined us on the farm, you know this lady is always behind the scenes making stuff happen. 🔥
Ps-she’s also the mother and mother-in-law of TTK’s founders, Amanda and Matthew.
Donna, keep up the incredible work; we love the heck out of you.

“We are learning how to interpret the signs our plants give us and this year our onions are telling us that TTK’s soil needs to rest and recover from past tillage.”
