For beef lovers, prime rib is considered an ideal alternative to turkey at Thanksgiving. And no wonder, Arizona is home to some of the highest quality and tastiest beef around. For beef recipes and to purchase directly from an Arizona rancher go to Fill Your Plate.org.

Arizona’s agriculture industry represents the strongest use of modern technology to conserve and manage water including drip, basin, pivot, and siphon tube irrigation. Plus, our long-term planning, storage and managed water transfer rank in the top tier compared to other parts of the country.

Greek yogurt is another popular superfood. In Arizona, our dairy cows produce high-quality milk for one of our very own yogurt manufacturing plants. Remember, dairy contains 9 essential nutrients, making it one of the most nutrient-rich food items you can enjoy.

Fresh Assorted Yogurts With Fruits And Berries

Last we heard, the largest turkey on record weighed 86 pounds, about the size of a large dog. Americans consume 46 million turkeys at Thanksgiving each year. A few of our Arizona retail farms raise turkeys for the holidays. But nearly the whole meal can be grown and raised in Arizona… except the cranberries.

between Thanksgiving and Easter, 1,500 to 2,000 refrigerated semi-truckloads of leafy greens leave Yuma every day to deliver all over America and Canada so all of us can enjoy our leafy greens during the wintertime.
