The second weekend in October we visited Homestead Heritage Farm near Waco with Nana and Papa. They have a traditional craft village which has a blacksmith, textiles, gristmill, woodwork, and pottery shops. Visitors are welcome to watch the craftsmen at work in the shops and to buy their crafts. They also have a barn and a deli with a fresh bakery.
The Barn
Nathan was excited to see the animals, so we headed to the barn first. We found chickens, goats and turkeys.
The Gristmill
The Blacksmith Barn
The Hayride
After eating lunch in the deli, we rode the hayride and toured part of the farm. We stopped at this covered pavilion to look out over the fields.
Overlook to View the Fields
The fields were empty because they had already harvested everything. The Brazos River runs along the fields where they have a grove of pecan trees.
