Cooking on the Farm: A Farm-to-Table Cooking Series at Big Jim Farms with Chef John LeTard 🌿Experience the magic of farm-to-table cooking in a unique collaboration between Big Jim Farms and Chef John LeTard of The Unseen Chef. Each class begins with a walk through the fields, where participants harvest fresh, seasonal ingredients before heading to our outdoor kitchen to transform them into elevated dishes that celebrate both New Mexican tradition and global flavors.
This isn’t a single class — it’s a culinary journey. Each week spotlights a new theme and menu, so you can join one class for a taste, or all five for the full seasonal experience. By the end, you’ll not only have new recipes and techniques, but also the memory of creating meals from scratch in the very place they were grown.
✨ The Series Menu ✨
October 4 – Harvest-to-Table Vegetarian Feast
Celebrate the autumn harvest with a colorful New Mexican succotash of corn, squash, peppers, and beans, paired with a bright tomato–herb salad, and finished with warm, grilled flatbread made in our outdoor kitchen.
October 11 – Red Chile Enchiladas with Calabacitas
Build classic stacked enchiladas layered with rich red chile sauce made from scratch using our farm-grown red chile, alongside calabacitas prepared with squash, corn, and local herbs.
