Cuadernos volume II issue 2 - Verano Sol y Agua (Sun and Water)
-
Volume Two, Issue Two of the Manitos Community Memory Project Cuaderno Series, a set of four booklets on the theme of food sovereignty, features the land-based Indo-Hispano culture of northern New Mexico and southern Colorado where natives often refer to themselves as Manitos--their shared history and culture, how they connect through traditional foodways, and how the changing seasons and weather give shape and meaning to the activities of daily life. Each issue focuses on one of the four seasons starting with Spring.
The Summer issue focuses on the growing season of warm weather and long days, and tending and taking care of the crops. June 24th, Dia de San Juan Bautista, St. John the Baptist, is a day to celebrate water in the rivers, lakes, and acequias, the traditional communally owned and managed irrigation ditches used to distribute water to the fields. Some of the abundant crops are ready to be harvested and enjoyed during the summer months and some will not ripen until fall. Either way a portion is preserved through canning and pickling to carry through the winter. The issue concludes with several recipes.
