Las Cruces Farmers
Market |
|
Located on the Las Cruces Downtown Mall on
Wednesday and Saturday mornings, the market offers arts, crafts and
other original merchandise from Doņa Ana County, and food and
produce from a three county area. Established in 1971 by produce
growers, the market now affords locals and visitors the opportunity
to shop for unique goods and services as well as fresh from the farm
herbs, produce and eggs in an outdoor setting. Fresh bread and baked
goods for sale are an added treat for all, and roving entertainers
round out this community happening. Residents and visitors alike
appreciate the local flavor and the talents of the market vendors.

Oh,
Fair New Mexico |
|
Oh, Fair New Mexico was written by
Elizabeth Garrett three years after New Mexico became a state in the
Union.
Under a sky of azure, where balmy breezes blow,
Kissed by the golden sunshine, is Nuevo Mejico.
Land of the Montezuma, with fiery hearts aglow,
and of the deeds historic, is Nuevo Mejico.
Chorus:
Oh! Fair New Mexico, we love, we love you so,
Our hearts with pride o're flow,
No matter where we go.
Oh! Fair New Mexico, we love, we love you so,
The grandest state we know — NEW MEXICO!
