Message from Ashley Castellanos

Mission Garden is a living agricultural museum in Tucson, Arizona, showcasing heritage crops and heirloom trees from the past 4,000 years. Visitors can explore different garden areas representing various cultures like Hohokam, Spanish colonials, Mexicans, Chinese, and more. With events and collaborations promoting traditional and modern farming practices in the Sonoran Desert, Mission Garden aims to connect people to the land through reclaiming agricultural traditions. Its historical significance led to Tucson being recognized as the first City of Gastronomy in the US by UNESCO, highlighting the city's rich culinary heritage.
