spicy, southwestern cuisine, chile included. Live music from your favorite
local bands keeps everyone's toes tapping as they enjoy shopping for arts and
crafts, watching the kids on pony rides, tasting the wines from all over the
state, or just enjoying fun in the sun! Located 5 miles west of Las Cruces,
