The Rincon Institute invites you to our 16th Annual Roasted Chile Festival at the Rincon Valley Farmers & Artisans Market in Tucson, AZ. Join us September 16th from 9 AM to 3 PM for fresh roasted Arizona grown green chilies, locally grown pesticide-free and organic fresh produce and fruit, artisans and crafters, great food, a beer garden, kid’s activities, and live music by John Grant & the Guilty Bystanders and Johnny Bencomo. Traffic will be slowed down on Old Spanish Trail with a special event permit and police officers. Bring the whole family for a fun filled day.
Our annual Roasted Chile Festival has attracted as many as 2000 people who enjoy live music while supporting our diverse artisans and farmers. Purchase green chilies grown locally, here in Arizona, including hatch and poblano chilies. Our vendors offer goods ranging from handmade quilts, aprons, handmade soap, handcrafted home décor, and fine furniture.
