In 1850s Texas, it was a quite common sight to see people harvesting green sap-laden trees to turn into baskets. Baskets were the most convenient way to carry things, be it a small basket to carry a lunch or a large bushel basket to carry the cotton that you've picked.

Join us as we go through the process of pounding a green log into baskets splits, and help us weave those splits into baskets that we will use on the farm throughout the year.

Farm entrance fee is $5 adults, $3 kids, FREE with TX State Parks Pass.
