Preston Trail Farms Brings Fun to the Farm
A year ago Preston Trail Farms opened its doors in Gunter, Texas. In addition to being the new home of the “Big Orange Pumpkin Farm,” Preston Trail Farms brought a True Value Hardware store to the surrounding communities and introduced visitors to the delicious food in the Preston Trail Farms Café!
Once again, North Texas residents are looking forward to cooler weather, Halloween season, and to excitedly plan their trip to The Big Orange Pumpkin Farm at Preston Trail Farms. Little did the Kimbrell family know when they began their pumpkin farm twenty years ago, that it would become an annual destination for thousands of North Texas and Oklahoma residents. Over the last year, thousands of visitors and school and church groups have come to Preston Trail Farms.
As Tiffany Scott shared on Facebook, “It is definitely an educational and entertaining experience. My daughter loved feeding the animals there and learned many things about their diets and how they are cared for. Not to mention the amazing family memories we made together last year. We can’t wait to come back!”
From September 17th through November 23rd, Pumpkin Farm will offer visitors a chance to experience blossoming small green pumpkins right on the vine, hayrides, a 6-foot hay maze, and a petting farm for a taste of the country life. Preston Trail Farms is open year-round to provide feed and hardware, a Café and a gift shop to serve the local community and those who want a “life on the farm” experience. Visitors enjoy the petting farm throughout the year as well.
