Edible Notables

  • Oh, Baby!

    Nothing says spring like a downy chick or woolly lamb cuddling against a child’s cheek.

    These and other young ones are what guests will see and experience during Andelin Family Farm’s annual Baby Animal Days, April 7 – 30.

  • Forever a 4-Her

    As a child, Karen Hinton was immersed in farming and ranching in the Texas panhandle on her family’s expansive acreage. In the small town of Happy, Texas, with a population that only numbered in the hundreds, 4-H was a place for children to learn life skills — an edifying club in which her whole family was involved.

  • Hot Pot

    Shabu-shabu hot pot is a meal meant to be shared, one that encourages gathering, cooking, and enjoying time together — and it’s not a ritual to rush through.

  • Super Market

    A year-round farmers’ market in Northern Nevada. The concept once sounded like a fantasy. But in 2022, it’s the realized dream achieved through a partnership between the owners of Prema Farm in Reno, Zach Cannady and Kasey Crispin, and the Reno-based nonprofit Local Food Network.

  • Goat Control

    Wildfires continue to threaten the Sierra and beyond. In addition to the miserable smoke, we’ve seen the devastating effects these disasters have on towns, national forests, and thousands of acres of terrain — some caused from lightning strikes or unattended campfires, others from high winds, downed power lines, or human error.

  • Particular About Pasta

    Each day, a bustling, pasta-producing shop deep within the Eldorado Resort Casino — with executive chef and Northern Italy native Ivano Centemeri at the helm — makes all of the needed pasta for nine restaurants at The Row, a conglomeration of three Downtown Reno casino resorts.

  • Down to Earth

    Garrett Menghini was living in Los Angeles and “drinking the CrossFit Kool-Aid” when he had a revelation: If he really wanted to take charge of his health and know his food, eating organic, seasonal produce from farmers’ markets was not going to cut it.
