Rio Fernando Park

Acequias, Tradition and People

Rio Fernando Park, 20-acres of restored wetlands and farmland adjacent to Fred Baca Park, serves as the Taos Land Trust’s hub for environmental stewardship, innovation, and hands-on education. The restored historic Vigil y Romo Acequia irrigates agricultural plots where students and volunteers test crops and soil health techniques, while wetlands host a biodiversity of flora and fauna. Weekly events are hosted at the public park and community and visitors have easy access to green space along open trails.
