Great article on T[odos]S[antos]
From the article Quote:
The floppy, fruit-fly-infested produce is acceptable in a pinch, but fortunately there are two organic farmstands north and south of town ? Rancho
Aiki, where you can pick your own greens, and Sue?os Tropical, which sells every imaginable herb as well as eggplants, tomatoes and arugula.
BCS Tech: Alan, where are Aiki and Sue?os Tropical from your office?
Diane asked me to ask youall about organic produce sources in La Paz. Todos Santos is doable, but she's homesick for just off the farm produce like
she could get back in Sonoma (California). We are based in La Paz/El Centenario. TIA

I've been told that Suenos is now closed for the summer. Usually reopens the end of
Oct or early Nov. Aiki was going to try to grow some heat resistent lettuce and greens but I think much of the organic produce slows down in summer.
Suenos is in Pescadero,
right on the highway, right after the first topo. Aiki is on the road to La Pastora, in Las Tunas.

MarieRose is correct, Sueno is closed until the fall. We have been told that Aiki plans to keep growing as long as they can - and we have another
terrific option here in Todos. Just past El Sol II is a wonderful small organic gardener - and on Saturday morning they even have a little farmers'
market. It has slowed down since the snowbirds left but Carla is still there selling her wonderful bread and baked goodies. Just continue on the Las
Playitas Road past El Sol II maybe 1/4 mile - look for sign on the left that says Organic Garden - I think that's what it says. If you get to a sign
that says D'Alicia you are one driveway past where you want to be.
