Farmington, NM Information

Farmington Convention & Visitors Bureau

The history of Farmington echoes that of many wild western towns. Clashes were legendary between the Navajo and unruly cowboys. Some years later, when the first resident preacher arrived in town, the cowboys got angry when the preacher refused to drink with them. The story goes that W.P. Hendricks held his ground while the cowboys shot holes in the floor all around him.  Learn more about Farmington:  www.farmingtonnm.org
