Elgin, Arizona |
Bird lovers
and conservationalists should feel right at home in Elgin, Arizona, for it is
the home of the National Audubon Society's Appleton-Whittell Research
Ranch. Establish in 1998, this nonprofit flying service provides
environmental organizations aerial perspectives to assist
conservation.
While it may
not be the first place that comes to mind when we think of wineries, the
Elgin/Patagonia/Sonoita area can hold their heads up high in that arena.
The area includes over 10 wineries that cover over 4,000 acres.
Elgin,
Arizona is roughly 40 miles north of the U.S./Mexican border and is
roughly 50 south of Tucson. As of the 200 census, the population was
309.
