Couse Pasture
photo by Elmo Baca
Constructed 1930
The Couse pasture and house gardens together interpret open horse pasture lands neat the plaza and also a cultivated garden of one the Taos communities leading art families. Bucolic pastures with magnificent mountain views are common in the Taos valley, but the Couse pasture is distinctive for its proximity to the Kit Carson Road arts district and other nearby landmarks, such as the Mable Dodge Luhan house. The house gardens planted by the family in the 1920s and 1930s survive boasting heirloom lilacs, irises and roses.
