Austin Rose Regenerates a Beautiful Landscape

"New Mexico in general is very agricultural, especially where we are here in Northern New Mexico. And so mostly unless you're in the city, most communities are acequia-based irrigation. It's a beautiful thing that since living here, I've just become so grateful to have. There's a lot of cultural significance to it in history and these systems are maintained every year or a few times throughout the year by the community. The community gets together and has cleaning days and work days, and everybody comes together and tends it and supports this flow of this beautiful gift of water in the high desert."
