Historical Park - Visitor Programs

Take a walk back in time at the Farmers Branch Historical Park! 

The Farmers Branch Historical Park is a beautiful location for a tour, picnic or multiple day retreat.  In addition to our many historic structures, we have two large meadows and a shaded picnic area available for activities.  We offer diverse adult and family programs, from one hour tours of the historic buildings to multi-day packages complete with chuck-wagon meal and craft workshops.   

Tours are free and available by appointment.  Multiple day packages require advanced registration.  Multiple-day packages are available only to groups staying overnight in on of the twelve Farmers Branch hotels or motels and must be scheduled at least one month in advance
