Farm Journal: Garden season begins in the Rio Grande Valley

Welcoming spring in the Rio Grande Valley

Spring is always unpredictable in New Mexico, and this year we’ve seen record breaking warm temperatures early in the season. Buds and bees have been waking up almost three weeks earlier than usual. A late freeze or March snowstorm is always possible, but our farm and landscape teams are preparing for a warm, dry growing season ahead.

As farm and gardens awaken, our farmers and gardeners work alongside nature, tending soil, sowing seeds and shaping the landscape to ensure the health and beauty of Los Poblanos in the months ahead.
