VIDEO: Fresh Greens In The Dry Arizona Desert
"It’s not a mirage; it’s a bougie farm"
Along the California River, where the lowland desert meets the California sun, lies the community of Lake Havasu, Arizona. Known for its 400 miles of stunning lake coastline and watersports, 300+ days of sunshine make it the perfect climate for beach sun and fun, but not so much for growing year-round crops. Scorching summers and very little rainfall pose challenges even for the most avid gardeners.
Meet Debbie and Tim Spinks; they have been navigating this problem with ingenuity and hard work.
Good Moringa to you
Their two-acre homestead sits 10 miles from Lake Havasu City and is surrounded by Moringa Oleifera trees. They harvest the leaves and process them into Moringa Powder which has medical benefits. Customers purchase it as capsules, powder, soap, and oil. Moringa Havasu is a small business that has served them well for several years.
