The New Mexico Farm and Ranch Heritage Museum

The New Mexico Farm and Ranch Heritage Museum is 47 acres packed with real stories about real people. The interactive museum, which has welcomed visitors from all over the world, brings to life the 3,000-year history of farming and ranching in New Mexico.

The enormous main building contains more than 24,000 square feet of exhibit space, along with a restaurant, gift shop and theater.

Fun and learning go hand in hand as visitors can watch a cow being milked, stroll along corrals filled with livestock, enjoy several gardens or watch one of our growing number of demonstrations.

We retrieve memories for some visitors, educate others and provide a fun-filled day for everyone.

One of the Museum's central functions is to be a place for research. Whether you are an anthropologist interested in our historic Native American pottery or a native New Mexican who wants to learn more about their family and their cattle or sheep brand, the Museum is a great resource for your historical research.
