Respecting the Community:

As an organization prioritizing sustainability, we are excited about the many opportunities to travel “lightly” to Market this year. Utilizing the Santa Fe Trails bus system, the Rail Runner train, the Santa Fe Rail Trail, IFAM’s Bike Valet, metered street parking, and a number of municipal lots, you have the opportunity to pick the easiest way for you to arrive at Market. However, if you choose to drive, you should plan some extra time to find parking.

IFAM’s Santa Fe Market venue, the 11-acre Railyard Park, is unique among urban greenspaces. Developed after hundreds of hours of public input, it is meant to be a model of environmental sustainability, community engagement and cultural enrichment. It is also one of the few public parks governed by a conservation easement, guaranteeing the area will remain an open gathering space in perpetuity.

As the Park’s official caretakers, the Railyard Park Conservancy (RPC) is committed to upholding the original community vision which created it, and the conservation easement which sustains it. In addition to overseeing all educational programming and public art in the Park, the RPC mobilizes more than 2,500 community volunteer hours annually to provide enhanced horticultural care of its diverse, drought-tolerant landscaping. The RPC also spearheads ongoing conservation efforts like a Healthy Soils Campaign and the Graze Days grassland restoration project to ensure the Park continues to thrive in the face of ongoing drought and climate change.

PATHWAYS PROTECT! In order to protect and support the Park’s sensitive ecosystem, the RPC requests that all market visitors stay on designated paths. Remember, if you’re not on path, you’re probably on a plant or an active restoration area. For more information, please stop by the RPC’s table at the market, or visit www.railyardpark.org.
