With Squash Blossom, Santa Fe woman aims to make it easy to buy local

The holidays are upon us, and you know what that means: errands. Just as the roads get terrible, we all hop into our cars and start whizzing around town, fighting over downtown parking or tromping through slushy parking lots well after dark to stand in line at the post office, acquire decorations, dinner ingredients for dozens of guests and, of course, buy gifts. For people who normally like to put in the effort to buy fresh local produce at the farmers market or patronize Santa Fe’s ever-growing plethora of small food shops, the temptation this time of year to forget all that and buy everything at once at the grocery store can be strong. We want to buy local, but our kids are out of school, our relatives are yelling at us, and we’re busy.
Nina Yozell-Epstein has the solution to that problem, at least.
