"Since the purchase of the Candelaria Farm Preserve in 1977, the City’s Open Space Division has proven to be one of the key local agencies involved in the protection of agricultural lands in Albuquerque," says Mayor Martin Chavez. "Our achievements in farm preservation provide another example of why we have one of the most celebrated Open Space programs in the nation." See why:
