Dangerfield, TX
A short drive to Dangerfield, you’ll find the fresh-air, homesteading paradise
Greer Farms. Your worries will melt away as you enter the gates and feast
your senses on the sights and sounds of this working family farm. Your stay
here can range from relaxing to as down-and-dirty authentic as you like. Wake
up with the roosters and head out to help gather eggs or pick berries. The
sustainable framed fruits, vegetables, and grass fed meats here are a perfect
companion to the cooking classes hosted by Chef Eva. If a learning vacation is
more your speed, delve into a three hour farm-to-table cooking class ending in
a well-satiated palate. With fishing, paddle boating, and paddle boarding right
outside your cabin door, you’ll want to be sure to remember to take a moment
to simply be still. Pour yourself a cold drink and enjoy a truly majestic sunset
over the 11-acre lake. You can even take a bit of the farm home with you by
purchasing meats, jams and sauces, breads and eggs directly from the farm
store, or order online for home delivery. Greer Farm keeps their destination
quaint by offering only four luxurious log cabins, so be sure to book in advance.
