We are Cristen & Miguel, and Small Town Farm is our one-acre wildlife habitat and plant nursery in Central Texas. We offer plants, seeds, herbal remedies, online resources, workshops, and community connections.
​
To us, gardening, creating, and stewarding the land is a daily practice. In our educational gardens, we grow herbs and heirloom vegetables alongside native plants and trees, creating sustainable, edible ecosystems. And just like this site, our gardens evolve slowly and organically. We garden year-round, tucking in layers of plants each season, documenting the many creatures who inhabit our space, and sharing what we learn along the way. Our work reflects a deep reverence for nature, an endless sense of curiosity, and a mission to make organic gardening and homegrown wellness accessible to all.​
​
Cristen studied photojournalism at the University of Texas at Austin, herbalism at the Wildflower School of Botanical Medicine, permaculture at the Austin Permaculture Guild, and is a life-long student of the plants. Miguel loves cooking, carpentry, graphic design, and creating, particularly with salvaged materials. We've been gardening, hosting, and creating things together for more than 15 years.
