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.
