Santa Fe Harvest Festival

Santa Fe Harvest Festival

Welcome to the 52nd Annual
Santa Fe Harvest Festival!

As the autumn breeze sweeps through the historic ranch grounds, join us for a celebration of the bountiful harvest season. Learn the time-honored tradition of crafting vibrant red chile ristras, or wander through the pumpkin patch to pick the perfect pumpkin for your fall decor.

Experience the joy of stomping grapes by foot and discover the art of making corn husks with hands-on demonstrations. Browse through local arts & crafts, surrounded by the colorful foliage of cottonwoods and historic buildings, with period-correct dressed docents guiding your journey through the past.

Quench your thirst with Golondrinas Gold Ale, brewed from Golondrinas Hops by Beer Creek Brewing, or savor the flavors of Sheehan Winery’s finest New Mexican wines. Embark on a hayride around the ranch and soak in the sights and scents of the season.

Join us at the longest-running harvest festival in New Mexico, where traditions come alive amidst the beauty of autumn. Let’s celebrate the abundance of the harvest together!
