24th Annual Roasted Chile Festival
It’s Chile Season in Southern Arizona!
The smell of roasting Hatch chiles is in the air — which means it’s time for Heirloom Farmers Markets’ 24th Annual Roasted Chile Festival! Come celebrate a Tucson & Vail tradition with fresh, locally grown chiles piled high and the unmistakable sizzle-and-smoke of chiles roasting right before your eyes.
Red’s Roasters will be roasting Hatch chiles all weekend long — bring a bag (or three) home! – Pre-order your fresh roasted Hatch chiles from Red’s Roasters to be picked up at Udall Park, Rincon Valley, and Rillito Park by calling 520-409-3406.
