Fall is Coming!


Fall is slowly coming to New Mexico. For those unfamiliar, in New Mexico fall means that the green chiles are harvested and roasted for the year ahead. Green chile is catamount to religion in New Mexico - chiles are even on the signs welcoming you to the state. Its a salsa, its a sauce, its a topping, its something you wind up adding to just about everything you eat. Once you've lived under the spell of green chile, you're forever addicted.

We've weclomed fall by peeling and bagging a 35# bag of hot green chile, and washed down with a nice fall ale. Here's the seeds and skins we'll be adding to the garden.
