First the wonderful Marisol from Bhava Yoga will lead us through a yoga flow to connect to the sensation of taste, while stretching to wake up the digestive system.
Then we’ll celebrate the autumn equinox by cooking a meal with the abundance of the harvest season!
Bhava Yoga Studio provides a mindful daily retreat where our community learns and explores the body-mind connection, aligning us for a balanced life in the modern world. Bhava’s studio is beautiful, giving students of all ages and levels of experience a space to practice and learn the discipline of yoga. They are located in downtown ABQ, but are lucky enough to have them join us on the farm to teach a class!
This historic farm is led by Lorenzo Candelaria, a 7th generation, Hispanic, Native American, farmer. Lorenzo is local-farm icon, as he loves to impart his teachings of sustainability and mindfulness to everyone who visits his farm. His famous line is that “they grow many crops on the farm, but harvest only one thing: consciousness”. An experience on Lorenzo’s farm is always special and unique.
The farm is located in the South Valley of Albuquerque (see below for address).
This class is for someone who wants a unique cooking experience. Our recipes focus on teaching you how to utilize and cook with seasonal produce, but it doesn’t matter if you are a vegetarian, vegan, or carnivore – we all need to eat more plants!
Whether you’re a beginner or more seasoned cook, everyone can learn from our classes. We always have extra staff who can help with additional instruction if needed.
If you have dietary restrictions, please let us know before class, and we can accommodate them!
We are following the CDC’s recommendation: if you are vaccinated, you don’t need to wear a mask, but if you are not vaccinated, then you are required to wear a mask.

We will have gloves and masks available at all classes. We will also be sanitizing all of our cooking surfaces and equipment. We will be minimizing the amount cooking equipment is shared between participants. If participants are not feeling well and need to cancel, see our policy below.
