An early bounty in Taos...

Way ahead of SW Colorado in the growing season, it was a thrill to get up early Saturday morning and after finding a "kitchy" coffee shop, headed to the Taos Farmer's Market...

Where we kept eating, the tents full of showy displays of root vegetables...

 

 

 

and some distinctly New Mexican additions...

 

like the honey we brought home from Grampa's Gourmet Honey, after tasting all they had...

Not just clover, but from bee hives in oak brush and near Tamarisk trees along the Rio Grande River. A dark molasses, woodsy honey. A sunny start to a full day in Taos!
