San Patricio

Ranchers, farmers, artists, and others who appreciate the lush, green loveliness of the Hondo Valley live in San Patricio and the nearby villages of Tinnie and Hondo. The Rio Ruidoso flows into the Rio Hondo here, providing a watery boon to farmers and wildlife alike. During the harvest, fresh cider and produce are sold at roadside stands.
