Albuquerque's rich, fertile North Valley area hugs both sides of the meandering Rio Grande. Early Spanish colonists selected the North Valley for use as farmland, and it retains much of its rural character. The North Valley is part of the oldest wine-producing area in North America, and several wineries are located here. The area's weekly farmers markets are extremely popular, selling fresh, seasonal produce as well as baked goods, preserves and crafts.
Los Ranchos de Albuquerque and Corrales are small villages nestled north of Albuquerque, on the banks of the Rio Grande, with broad green pastures and orchards, as well as a strong artistic flair.
