A Scientist's Farm
Meet Manfred Warmuth. Manfred is the kind of guy who calls to bring over ice-cream, and then shows up with cream, fruit, and a thermos of liquid nitrogen to flash-freeze it all. Manfred will show you how to shell soybeans using an electric drill and an ...
My Friend Doug's Really Good Fish Tacos
Here's a recipe to help you test your 'buy local' skills. We were able to buy at the farmers' market, grow, or raise pretty much everything (except the pineapple and mango, but both can be substituted or omitted). It's a 'one dish' meal, perfect for a ...
Farewell to Pipi

HoofsnHorns Farm
The desert of Arizona has a jewel, an animal utopia named HoofsnHorns. It is a sanctuary, right outside of Tucson, for animals who have been abandoned in the desert, are in need of some serious TLC, or who were headed to the slaughterhouse. Their savior ...
Pato's Dream Date Gardens
Where do I even begin? I guess the beginning is always a good place... We drove down, down, down the Vallecito Mountains, entering the hot, dry weather of the Anza-Borrego desert. The ride was spectacular, with amazing vistas on the way down the windy, ...
Beck Grove
What luck we had! We called Helene and Robert Beck, searching intently for their farm, Beck Grove, at which we intended to drop in on an unannounced visit, and caught them just as they were leaving for a movie. One of the first things out of Helene's ...
