DESERT HARVESTERS

Our Desert Harvesters website is an amazing storehouse of information and inspiration! For years it has served those curious about the native plants and foods of the Sonoran Desert, and their long history of use by people who lived and thrived here thousands of year ago, and—not without hardship—into the present. That legacy informs and guides our current appreciation for the Sonoran Desert, the amazing plants that evolved here, and the people who form relationships with place, plants, and people, for all kinds of sustenance.

We have lots of resources at our website to help you grow, identify, harvest, process and eat native foods in the Sonoran Desert, including:

• Eat Mesquite and More, A Cookbook for Sonoran Foods and Living 
• Best Practices for harvesting and processing mesquite
• Information about mesquite milling
