The Jose Urbano Vigil Ranch, located 20 miles west of Trinidad in Vigil, is another of Colorado's oldest centennial farms. Dating to 1869, it was established by Marcus S. Vigil. Alfalfa, apples, potatoes, peaches and other vegetables were grown; and sheep, goats and cattle were raised. After Marcus Vigil's death in 1901, his son, Jose Urbano Vigil, took over operations. Still standing are two historic houses and barns dating to the late 1860s and early 1870s.
