Come plan your spring break trip to the farm, where every day we will have new and special programs for visitors to do. Want to help out the rangers with morning chores? We will open at 9 a.m. each day to let visitors join in the farm chores like feeding the animals and gathering firewood.

These special programs are only available from March 9-23, so be sure to come see us. Oh, and did we mention that all of these programs, just like park entry, are FREE?!

🚨 Burn Ban Enacted for Gillespie County 🚨

The Gillespie County Commissioners Court has enacted a burn ban. All open burning is prohibited in the unincorporated areas of Gillespie County, except for burning in approved enclosures like trash barrels with a mesh cover and charcoal grills.

🔥 Why the Ban? Due to dry conditions and lack of significant rainfall, open burning poses a severe wildfire risk, endangering lives and property.

⚠️ Penalties: Violating this order is a Class C misdemeanor, punishable by a fine of up to $500.

For more details, visit the Gillespie County website: GillespieCounty.org.

Stay safe, everyone! 🌟
