The San Xavier del Bac Mission Church shines white in Mission Garden in Tucson, Arizona.

Word has gotten around that you can also eat well in the USA. In metropolises like New York, Los Angeles, Miami. Tucson, Arizona, on the other hand, is not known as a food destination. But you should, because the desert city, just an hour’s drive from the Mexican border, is characterized by influences from all over the world, from pre-Columbian, Indian, European and Mexican. To be experienced in Mission Garden.

Mission Garden used to be a Jesuit mission. But the history goes back even further: Indigenous peoples were already farming here 4,000 years ago. This makes Mission Farm the oldest continuously working farm in America. And the center of a new gastronomic movement that has earned Tucson the title of City of Gastronomy by UNESCO. Tucson’s creative hosts reinterpret a centuries-old culinary heritage. Not in the sense of international star cuisine, but down-to-earth, affordable and of the highest quality.
