Activity Overview

A historic Texas farm that has been functioning for more than 150 years, Nash Farm offers a selection of activities and events for the entire family year-round. This is the oldest intact farmstead in Tarrant County and offers an excellent insight into the way settlers lived in the 18th and 19th centuries.

Children can learn about how the changes in technology transformed farming over the centuries. They can also get a hands-on approach to farming and learn various survival tips.

The 5.2-acre farm is easy to reach from Dallas by taking Highway 114 West to Grapevine. From Fort Worth, take Highway 121 North to Grapevine.
