Jesus Guzman Farms
3 Farms, 3 Acres, and primarily a one man grower. Eat your heart out Superman.
Jesus Guzman Farms produces a variety of chiles, corn, cucumbers and much more. He also enlightened me on the ancient and labor intensive production of 'Orno Corn'. You
strip the corn off the cob, throw it in an Horno oven (you've seen them: they're like those chimney ovens you put in your backyard) overnight, which dries and smokes it. To
rehydrate, you simply throw it in a pot with beans for sweet, smokey flavor.
Jesus delivers to Chico's Restaurant, but primarily sells direct at three markets. Kate says she helps "a little." I loved meeting them both. Jesus says one of his favorite reasons for coming to market is the new methods he learns from other farmers.
