Grapevine’s Nash Farm will host the First Fridays at the Farm series. The 2018 series features family-friendly educational experiences designed to teach life skills that were important to a Texas farm in the 19th century.

Daily life in Texas during the late 1800s required knowledge of a number of skills, methods and even recipes that will be demonstrated during the monthly sessions. Participants work alongside Nash Farmhands to learn these heritage skills that can still be utilized in present day.
