If you've had the pleasure of traveling through New Mexico in the fall - the distinct smell of green chile being roasted in parking lots and backyards fill the air. We take it so seriously that this year the Governor signed a bill naming fire-roasted green chile as the official New Mexico smell.

Bring your spiciest friend for a Hatch green chile roast complete with New Mexican fare (food and drinks). Each guest will take a little bit of New Mexico home in the form of 1 pound of roasted chile.

WHERE: SoOS supporter Michelle Austin's Home in NW DC
WHEN: Chile roast will occur Saturday, September 7th or September 14th from 11-3pm
HOW MUCH: $60 per person
HOW MANY: Limited to 10 guests
