Let’s grow mesquites! Mesquites are wonderful native, drought-tolerant, food-producing trees, and the time to propagate them is now!

Join us for a workshop all about mesquites, where we will walk you through the steps to grow them from seed. You’ll get to eat a mesquite pancake, learn to process mesquite pods, and take home your very own baby mesquite tree.

This is a low cost, low input, high impact way to support your community and local ecosystem! Don’t have a place to plant your tree? Ask your neighbors, or, the sapling can be used for a future Cool It Burque project once it’s grown a bit bigger under your care.
