12 WEEKS. 12 THEMES. ONE DELICIOUS TUCSON SUMMER. 🌵🌞❤️

From May 18 through August 9, Tucsonans ate their way through the city one themed week at a time, and now the receipts are in. From coffee and tea to wine, vegan eats, Asian cuisine, Sonoran favorites, happy hour, and everything in between, 12 Weeks of Foodie Summer was all about eating local and supporting the businesses that make Tucson so special.

THANK YOU, TUCSON, for showing up and eating local with us all summer long. And a huge thank you to our presenting sponsor @visittucson, our partners @510south, @bbbsouthernarizona, and @azwinecollective, and every locally-owned business that made this campaign possible.🎉
