  • BRAM Cookware
    Amazing collection of clay pots for cooking, now available onlilne.
  • Black Chamba Pots from Toque Blanche
    If you're eager to start cooking with clay, this is the place to start. I love the round soup pots for beans but the casseroles will do as well.
  • Chiles from Tierra Vegetables
    Lee and her brother grow and dry some great chiles. Visit them at the farmers market, online or at their stand.
  • Wonderful Organic Rice
    Take it from someone who generally isn't nuts about brown rice- this stuff is grand!

About Rancho Gordo and this blog

  • Rancho Gordo on Twitter: @RanchoGordo
  • We grow many varieties of New World products, specializing in heirloom beans. We sell only domestically in the US at this point, via our website (ranchogordo.com), directly to restaurants and at farmers markets. The older I get, the more I realize I've barely begun to scratch the surface of the things that interest me, so this blog is hardly the last word on anything, just a collection of experiments. If you have questions, more information or corrections, I'd love to hear from you in the "comments" section after each post. The blog is updated on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.

We are so happy to welcome author, educator, and textile artist Rebecca Burgess to Jimtown Store.  Presenting her new book Harvesting Color.  Rebecca will join us for a color dye demonstration, tea & cookies, and book signing.

Rebecca's book, Harvesting Color, explains where to forage for natural dye plants, how to grow some of them in your own garden, and how to make & use the dyes.  We are just captivated and can't wait to have Rebecca here to share!

Visit Rebecca Burgess beautiful website to learn more about Rebecca, the art of natural dying, and Rebecca's amazing natural dye projects.  We did and feel so inspired!
