Write a poem. Enter it into the poem contest. Add it to the heritage recipe book you're making. . .

Don't forget the free chile roasting on Labor Day this year. And note that each Monday market opens at 9 am. There's a lot going on at the Española Farmers Market. The poems written and gathered are ongoing throughout the years of the market's existence. Winners will be announced and ribbons awarded by the vegetable judge at the special event in October 2022. Poets will read poems honoring the importance of growing food locally and caring for our water and land resources. The markets deserve a boost. Some Northern New Mexico cooks are making special recipe books to pass on to the relatives. Are you among them? Don't wait until it's too late. Act now and buy heritage produce at the market. Mondays through October 2022.
