Description

Join us June 22 at 10:30 am for a Mission San Juan Acequia Ranger Talk and Demonstration!

 

Learn about this miraculous irrigation system and watch in awe as water is released into 300-year-old acequias built by the hands of mission people. View the same scene as mission farmers did 300 years ago as water creeps into the farm fields and soaks the land!

 

This program will begin at the Mission San Juan Information Center. We look forward to seeing you!
