Month: December 2024

As the days grow shorter, we’re leaning into the rhythm of the season. A few workdays remain, including harvesting some beef, but we’re embracing the weeks ahead as a time to slow down, get grounded, and reconnect with nature.

Winter invites us to embrace the cold and the restorative energy it offers. Stepping into natural light during the day and taking moments to rest in darkness at night supports the body’s innate rhythm. It’s a season of balance—inviting us to reflect, recharge, and prepare for what’s next.

Whether you’re savoring hearty meals, bundling up to enjoy the crisp air, or simply pausing to appreciate the stillness, winter offers a chance to align with nature’s pace. For us, it’s a reminder of how life flows in cycles, offering work, rest, and renewal in equal measure.

We hope this season brings you grounding, warmth, and moments to simply be.

As usual, we’re taking some time off during the holidays to spend with family in New Mexico. We plan to kick off our winter/spring farmers market season in Phoenix in early 2025. Please keep a watch on our calendar page for updates!

See you in 2025,

Brenna & Kenny

Charcuterie Inspiration for the Holidays
Planning a festive gathering or a cozy night in? Create a show-stopping charcuterie board featuring our smoked salmon and smoked black cod. Add Medjool dates stuffed with goat cheese and drizzled with honey for a touch of sweetness, alongside brie or aged gouda, artisan crackers, marinated olives, pickled veggies, and candied pecans. It’s an easy, elegant way to bring everyone to the table!

For a special treat, we’re featuring an “exotic” New Mexico honey tomorrow. This unique honey is made by bees pollinating organic Pima Cotton blossoms near Deming. With a light amber hue, it boasts a rich, buttery flavor balanced by a delightful tang. The soil and cotton variety lend it a distinct character, while its strong sweetness and subtle hint of spice—reminiscent of cinnamon—create a captivating finish. Available in 1LB and 3LB jars, and yes, we’ll have samples to try!

Miss us in Phoenix? We tentatively plan to return to our favorite Arizona farmers markets for the winter/spring season beginning in early January 2025. Keep a watch on our calendar page for updates!
