In case you haven't noticed by now :-), we are a very nature-loving family who not only makes all-natural soaps, but also recycles and conserves energy. So as Utah weather becomes more being-outside-friendly, we realized we needed what in Spanish is called a "huerta," or a garden where you grow crops. We used to have one in our backyard, you see, but Utah's seemingly bipolar weather made it tough to upkeep our tomatoes and cucumbers. So we decided it wasn't the best time for it.
But my dad Julio recently took up composting, which has been giving him great fertilizer for future crops. Not only that, but he's also considering building some low-key "refuge" for these crops, which will give them the much-needed safety they deserve to withstand most of our seasons. I canNOT wait try them when they're ready!
I'll be uploading pictures soon of our new yummy foods so be on the lookout for them :-)
