Our farmer/rancher SARE project including farmers, Zachary Paige, Rodrigo Cala and Javier Garcia focuses on increasing capacity of specialty crop markets for value-added foods. We purchased necessary equipment for increasing productivity of jalapeƱos, serrano, chile de arbol hot peppers, white corn and garlic as well as equipment to produce value-added products including hot sauce, garlic salt, etc. We held seed saving education events to breed, select, winnow and store both the crops and seeds. Come and hear our strategies, challenges and successes!
