The Rail Yards Market, held at the Rail Yards in Downtown Albuquerque, has become one of the fastest-growing and most popular farmers markets in the City. Held on Sundays from May through October, shoppers can find fresh fruits and vegetables, chile, baked goods, teas, lemonades, art and much more. The market is divided into the railyard buildings based on item type, with farmers tables set up in the west building, art and clothing in the east building. During the autumn months, roasted green chile and red chile ristras begin to appear and are roasted on site. Apple cider can be bought by the cup up to the gallon. The market is also popular with dog owners, who will bring their pups, on leash, to enjoy sunny days.
