The Rail Yards ABQ Farmers’ Market Is Now Offering Pre-Order And Drive-Up Options

When it comes to flattening the curve on the coronavirus, New Mexico has overall had some success. The infection rate has slowed in the last couple weeks and businesses have adapted to this new normal of social distancing and quarantine.

This includes some of the state’s farmers’ markets, which offer an open-air environment to shop for fresh, local foods and other goods. The Rail Yards in Albuquerque is one location that is leading the way in offering a safe alternative for those hesitant to mix with the public.

The Rail Yards Market sits inside the historic Albuquerque railyard, built in 1917.

The market has been operating seasonally here since 2014, transforming this old space into something useful and beneficial for the community once again.
The market recently re-opened for the new season with a playful twist on drive-thru service: a farm-to-car concept.

This service means you will need to pre-order your selections online then stop by on Sunday to pick up your order.

The drive-thru is almost completely contact-free. Drive up, pop the trunk, and a staff member will place your order in the vehicle. There is also a walk-up option but customers are still highly encouraged to remain in their vehicles.
This option makes it helpful to keep your family safe while still having the opportunity to enjoy seasonal and handmade goods, as well as support local farmers, bakers, and artisans.
