Borderlandia in National Geographic
We are proud to share that Borderlandia has made the list "15 of the Best Places in the World for Food Right Now," alongside National Geographic's inclusion of Sonora, Mexico.
A hearty thank you to journalist and friend Rebecca Toy, who joined us on our Bacanora Tour to write the article, and our incredible partner Joan Coronado, also listed La Ruta del Bacanora, for making this all possible.
We have always said Sonora is the best food destination in North America that nobody is writing about. Well, thanks for changing that in a big and beautiful way, Rebecca, with this awesome piece!
