Mission Garden Events: Pueblos de Maíz / Tasting History—Corn Traditions


  • 946 West Mission Lane Tucson, AZ, 85745 United States (map)

Mission Garden’s Tasting History program joins the Tucson City of Gastronomy tradition of celebrating and teaching about corn—an event known as Pueblos del Maíz.

Whether you call it corn, maize, maíz, or Zea, there’s a lot to learn about the thousands of years of corn domestication and the many traditional ways of processing and using it. At this event Mission Garden partners will come together to demonstrate some of these traditions.
