Jourdan-Bachman Pioneer Farms

Great-great-grandpa's time

Jourdan Bachman Pioneer Farms

A collection of pre-Civil War structures, and some new ones made to look old, assembled to recreate the look and feel of pioneer life in Texas.

Volunteer interpreters dressed in period costumes bring to life the art and draft of activities like Dutch-oven cooking, blacksmithing, and woodworking.

Be prepared for creature comforts – read “air conditioning” – to slip away and get ready for a dry, hot, dusty and dirty time – just like in the good ol’ days.
