Keeping up with the Yankees. A series of six articles on making a beautiful landscape in the hottest, driest and most southern growing region in the United States.
Me?
I have lived in Fredericksburg long enough to see that old, rock-rimmed German farming community morph into a chic, new-age tourist destination. Raised in Hawai’i and educated in the Northeast, Marc has held publisher-level roles with iconic titles such as The Old Farmer’s Almanac, Yankee, Aloha, and Alaska Magazine. There was a time I serves/ed as editor of such obscure titles as Schutzhund USA and Milberger’s Gardening South Texas. As founding publisher of The Insider’s Guide to the Texas Hills, I got to put together a talented editorial team that dug into the soul of this recently discovered region and, together, we contributed to the early development of the tourist industry here.
