Farmers Markets and Fresh Chili Season
Fall agriculture is peak season in the Four Corners. Green chili roasting fills the air at grocery stores,
farmers markets overflow with locally grown produce, and the eating improves dramatically.
●

Farmington, Aztec, Bloomfield, and Kirtland coordinate farmers market days Monday through
Thursday, so you can hit a different market every week for four weeks straight.
Fresh roasted green chili is a must during fall. Take soaked garlic cloves with you to the
roasting station so they roast alongside your chili.
Fry bread from local vendors at farmers markets, topped with fresh roasted chili, is some of
the best food in the region. The quality difference between homemade and mass-produced
versions is night and day.
James Ranch near Durango offers farm-to-table dining with views that justify the drive. Their
kale salads topped with fresh farm eggs and roasted vegetables are genuinely exceptional.
Fresh food simply tastes better, and fall is when local agriculture reaches its peak. Your homegrown
tomatoes will have more flavor than anything you'd buy in a store, no matter what you invested in the
garden.

This Cute Aztec home did not last long. 3 days on the market and closed just over 30 days.

Leaf Peeping and Scenic Drives
The term might be new to you, but leaf peeping is exactly what it sounds like. It's the art of driving to
see fall foliage at its peak. And our region offers something better than most places in the country:
staggered timing.
●
●
●
●
Because the Four Corners sits at a high desert mountain elevation, different areas peak at
different times, extending your leaf season from September through November.
You can start with local spots like the riverside in Farmington or zip north to Pagosa Springs
for earlier color changes.
Ouray, Telluride, and the Million Dollar Highway offer some of the most photographed fall
views in Colorado, and they're just a drive away.
The Million Dollar Highway between Ouray and Silverton is worth the trip alone, though those
with height anxiety should focus on the road rather than the 1,000-foot drops on either side.
Pro tip: stay overnight in one of these mountain towns rather than driving everything in one day. You'll
actually enjoy the scenery instead of white-knuckling the steering wheel.
