Gifts from the Desert

Monday, June 23rd, 2008

Oh, the adventures of farming in the Sonoran Desert.

While driving home from the Bisbee Farmers Market on Saturday unbeknowst to us a huge storm was building up in the mule mountains and to the north of our farm.  While we were relaxing and enjoying the rest of the hot saturday afternoon we were startled by a sudden temperature drop and the sight of a “dust cloud” rolling our way.   It covered the entire valley floor from the Chiricahuas to the Peloncios!!
