Cooking Up Traditions demonstrations:
The Espanola Farmers' Market will host several cooking-in-the-horno food demonstrations throughout the summer, thanks to a grant from Northern Ro Grande National Heritage Area (NRGNHA). We will also have demonstrations identifying wild food and dye plants growing in our Market Flower Garden and a tasting of local heirloom varieties of chile as the season unfolds.

Gardens:
Start looking in May for new plantings in the eleven wildflower ovals of the community garden facing the street. Last year, many customers took home donations of amaranth,cosmos and marigold seeds. We are also starting community vegetable gardens in the back fields and have a core of five gardeners ready to plant in late spring. Watch the blog for a listing of possible student employment in these fields as summer nears.
