Joe Urbach is the founding publisher of GardeningAustin.com and is the original Kitchen Garden Farmer. He has lived and worked in the Central Texas area for over 30 years. He and his wife Holly are the parents of five children and grandparents of two beautiful boys.
Joe is a certified Texas Master Gardener and is currently serving as the Vice President of the Hays County Chapter of the Master Gardener Association. He teaches and lectures on gardening regularly and can often be found speaking at local nurseries, libraries, churches, garden clubs, businesses and Extension offices.
While still very much the advocate for a "kitchen garden in every home" Joe now finds that his focus is set on changing the way we all think about our food - be it from our kitchen gardens, farmers markets or the local supermarket. Joe is becoming a phytonutrient gardener and wants us all to come along for the journey to a better, healthier, longer and more active and productive life!
