The day before the tornado, May 23rd, this was part of our garden. I actually remembered to bring the camera to take photos of the garden that morning, finally beginning to flush out with green vegetation. Our tomato plants survived the late frost and were finally beginning to stand straight with new growth. The beans and southern peas were sprouting and the summer squashes were growing rapidly....it seemed that our hard work was paying off.

approximately 800 butterheads, romaine, and leaf lettuces......We were letting some folks "pick" early for their produce co-op on this particular morning and getting geared up for our first "picking day" the following Saturday. Soon after, we would be preparing for the weeky farmer's market as well. Little did we know, the very next day, we would see hundreds of hours of hard work and months and months of planning, blow away in the wind.......
