LON’s Organic Garden
At The Hermosa Inn in Paradise Valley, LON's has a one-acre organic garden located just outside the kitchen that provides fresh food and a natural training ground for the culinary team. It is here that the white coats of sous chefs, line cooks and pantry staff can be seen early each morning, watering produce beds and harvesting what bounty is at the peak of perfection that day.
“Cooking something we have grown ourselves creates a stronger, more passionate connection to our food,” says Jeremy Pacheco, executive chef of the Scottsdale AZ restaurant. “There’s nothing like experiencing nature up close. It’s a great training ground to teach about the seasonality of food.”
“It’s also exciting for our culinary team when something pops out of the ground, and even more exciting when a guest later comments on how delicious it was.”
Arugula, basil, coriander, fennel, onions, peppermint, chilies, strawberries, English lavender, baby oak leaf, Bloomsdale spinach, mesclun greens, heirloom tomatoes, tomatillos and various types of squash and melon are growing in LON's garden. Lemon, orange and grapefruit trees rim the property and provide the majority of fruit used in LON's dishes and cocktails at The Last Drop Bar.
