Howard Garrett graduated from Texas Tech with a degree in Park Administration and Landscape Architecture. An early career focus on golf course design and management evolved to include landscape architecture and design. He decided to become an organic person when his daughter Logan was born in 1985. A photograph he took of her when she was nine months old standing on the front porch with her hand to her mouth captures the moment – “she did what all kids do, pick up things and put them in her mouth.” His concern for her health and possible exposure to environmental toxins launched an investigation of organic practice. Convinced that the health of the soil was the key, he began to educate and advocate through a column in the Dallas Morning News and a radio program about organic gardening, currently broadcasting to 200 markets. His listeners dubbed him “the Dirt Doctor,” his brand and now his website. By 1988 he had committed his entire career to the research, education and promotion of organic products and practices. Milestone projects include the Frito-Lay Headquarters, Plano, 1988. Working with Sasaki Associates, Howard provided the landscape design of the plants, bed preparation and native landscaping protocols. He has written fifteen books, established the Texas Organic Research Center, developed an online course in organic land management, and maintains a rigorous public speaking schedule.

Rural women comprised the largest part of the adult population of Texas until 1940 and in the American South until 1960. On the cotton farms of Central Texas, women's labor was essential. In addition to working untold hours in the fields, women shouldered most family responsibilities: keeping house, sewing clothing, cultivating and cooking food, and bearing and raising children. But despite their contributions to the southern agricultural economy, rural women's stories have remained largely untold. Using oral history interviews and written memoirs, Rebecca Sharpless weaves a moving account of women's lives on Texas cotton farms. She examines how women from varying ethnic backgrounds--German, Czech, African American, Mexican, and Anglo-American--coped with difficult circumstances. The food they cooked, the houses they kept, the ways in which they balanced field work with housework, all yield insights into the twentieth-century South. And though rural women's lives were filled with routines, many of which were undone almost as soon as they were done, each of their actions was laden with importance, says Sharpless, for the welfare of a woman's entire family depended heavily upon her efforts.
