Thanks Poncho, that is the coffee I used to buy but when original owners sold it was no longer available in organic or fair trade. I have contacted them to see if possibly things have changed. It is very tasty coffee.
I just bought one of those chili roasters. I will fire it up tomorrow but I have no idea as to what I am doing. I am hoping to burn the day lights out of all my hot peppers and sweet red peppers and freeze them without skinning. Hope this turns out. I am always in awe of those roasters when I visit New Mexico each year.

Haven't had the coffee, what is that like?
So how did your home-roasted chile work out?
I've tried 3 flavors of piñon coffee--regular, Colorado and Texas blends, and the last two are no longer offered. I love coffee--and piñon in just about anything BUT coffee. All have a strange flavor I just don't like. You can find the signature blend in very tiny bags to try out, which makes it nice.
How cold does it have to be, to stop picking pinon?
I don't know when you have to stop harvesting them, but they are good when they fall on the ground. But difficult to see, I've been told August or September are good times, but we have picked in November.

Harvesting
In the Desert Southwest during September through November, it is fun for families to gather their own pinyon nuts, and do their own roasting and salting. After the first fall frosts, the mature cones slowly open,
spilling their nuts on the ground; barring rain or snow, this can be an easy way of harvesting.
Are there pinon nuts in Southern New Mexico too? Ruidoso - Tularosa etc? I always understood the South had the most nuts-- lol but Im talking Pinon specifically
