Gardens and Livestock

Homestead Garden

Featuring a diverse spectrum of produce that can be grown throughout the year in central Texas, the Homestead Garden area exists to inspire and help instruct those who are  interested in learning about sustainable and organic gardening methods. Informative signs along the walking path will help gardeners of all levels learn about specific plants and techniques.

Livestock

The livestock area, located acrpss from the Herb Garden, contains several different heritage breeds of poultry. This area is under development as we seek to expand and improve what is available there. We plan to have cow milking demonstrations, as well as horses, goats, and a petting pen area.

Herb Garden

The taste, aroma, and healing properties of organically grown fresh and dried herbs have always long been sought after  by cooks, florists,  natural medicine practitioners and others.  This area is planted with a variety of different native herbs and plants.  Visitors can learn to identify, take in the aromas, and even sample some of the many plants featured here.
