Featured Bag Item
Arugula and its health benefits
This week’s featured bag item will be arugula. It appears to be like lettuce but actually is part of the mustard greens family. Arugula is packed with calcium and potassium. It has many health benefits including, but not limited to, osteoporosis prevention, reduced risk of cancer, and good for heart health.
Check out this quick and delicious arugula salad recipe and have fun making it!

The weather is getting warmer, which means we will be spending more time outside. Come for Family Music night at Chispas Farm to share your musical talents or simply enjoy others’ talents. We will be outside enjoying the weather and the beautiful scenery that Chispas Farms has to offer.
* NM grown / NM made. We raise money to purchase these foods from local farmers and food producers as a concrete way to invest in our local food system and get delicious, fresh, local food to our ReFresh families. Keep an eye out for these local farms and food businesses when you do your food shopping. ReFresh boxes will always include local food items.
Thank You!
Special thanks to all of the farmers and food producers working so hard to feed our communities; our partner organizations who helped to recruit ReFresh families: Crossroads for Women, Kids’ Cook, SWOP, Supportive Housing Coalition of New Mexico, Together for Brothers, Mandy’s Farm, New Mexico Asian Family Center, and YES Housing; to the staff, volunteers, donors, and ReFresh families who make the program work, and to our partners at MoGro Mobile Grocery, who pack these beautiful ReFresh bags each week for us, and who do so much important work connecting communities to healthy food throughout New Mexico. There would be no ReFresh program without all of you – we love our partners!
