TCW at the Tucson Botanical Gardens

Annual Fiesta de los Chiles
October, 2001

For the first time ever, TCW agreed to be a major sponsor of the Tucson Botanical Gardens' annual Fiesta de los Chiles. The fiesta is a two day event held every autumn just around the time of the chile harvest. Chiles in every size, color and heat are displayed, eaten, and worn.

TCW's pavilion was packed with local and out-of-town visitors anxious to learn more about natural and organic foods, cooperatives and buying clubs. We collected names, gave out samples and had a wonderful time in the glorious October sun (ok, it was rather hot and the pavilion staff were real troopers in that blistering southwestern heat, but who's complaining?)

Here are some photos of the event, courtesy of Lisa Mainz, Operations Manager and unofficial TCW photographer!
