Welcome to Rio Grande Community Farm!

Rio Grande Community Farm is an urban farm rooted in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Founded in 1997 as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, it has grown into a vibrant, living landscape where community, agriculture, and ecology intersect. The farm encompasses 50 acres within Los Poblanos Fields Open Space, including 14 acres of micro-farmer plots, 4 acres dedicated to education, 2 acres of community garden space, and 30 acres supporting hay production and wildlife habitat. Here, learning and stewardship come to life year-round alongside thriving ecosystems.

Our mission is: Providing diverse and underserved communities with equitable access to urban farmland and education in sustainable agriculture – prioritizing food justice , biodiversity, and climate resilience.

More than just a farm, it is a place of connection and growth. People of all ages gather here to learn, share, and give back through tours, workshops, and hands-on service. Together, our growers and supporters cultivate not only fresh, nourishing food, flowers, and plants, but also a deeper sense of belonging, resilience, and care—for the land and for one another.
