As part of the Agave Festival Marfa, attendees spent the morning exploring the Chihuahuan Desert Research Institute’s Botanical Gardens near Fort Davis. The guided hike was led by Jim Martinez and offered participants an up-close look at native desert flora.
The tour is one of many events linking regional ecology with the arts and culture celebrated during the annual festival.
