Sustainable cuisine, flavor with purpose
Every choice we make at Don José honors the Teotihuacán land, from how we grow our ingredients to how we cook.
Great Mexican food starts with respecting its roots, the environment, and the people who bring it to life.
Where Flavor Begins
The heart of Don José is our garden, where we grow ingredients like criollo corn, zucchini flowers, cilantro, cucumbers, radishes, lettuce, lemons, and parsley using traditional methods and local hands.
We farm without chemicals, following nature’s rhythms to keep the soil healthy. Cooking with these ingredients means fresh flavors and preserving ancient farming wisdom.
A Farm with Heart
We raise our animals with respect, avoiding industrial methods or rushed growth. Our farm gives us:
- Organic products
- Traceable ingredients
- Free-range animals
- Eggs, milk, and poultry go straight from our farm to our kitchen, no middleman needed.
Cooking Thoughtfully
We use every ingredient wisely, with low-waste techniques, composting, and reusing organic matter to enrich the soil. Our cooking relies on fire, steam, comales, or wood-fired ovens to save energy.
Sustainability You Can Feel
When you visit, you’re part of our cycle. Walk through our crops, meet our animals, and taste ingredients picked fresh. At Don José, you don’t just hear about sustainability—you live it.
