About Torrance County Fair

The Torrance County Fair in Estancia celebrates the Estancia Valley's pinto bean and ranching heritage — the high-desert basin east of the Manzano Mountains is one of New Mexico's most productive pinto bean growing areas, and the county's farming and ranching communities maintain their fair traditions in a landscape that also contains Salinas Pueblo Missions National Monument.

What to Expect

Expect livestock shows, 4-H competitions, pinto bean exhibits, rodeo events, local food vendors, and a community fair celebrating the bean farming and ranching heritage of the Estancia Basin.

Visitor Tips

Estancia is the county seat in the high-altitude Estancia Valley. Salinas Pueblo Missions National Monument preserves three remarkable 17th-century Spanish colonial missions at abandoned Tiwa and Tompiro Pueblo sites — among the most significant and least-visited cultural sites in New Mexico.
