Happy Hill Farm is a "real" 500-acre working farm campus. Located just south of the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex near Granbury, Texas, the Farm is within easy driving distance of both cities. The students are heavily involved in a very active 4-H program. They are showing their animals -- steers, heifers, pigs, goats, sheep -- in all of the major livestock shows throughout Texas -- Fort Worth, The State Fair, San Antonio, Houston. In addition, approximately 50 mother cows provide table meat for the Farm’s dining center, along with lamb and pork. Some thirteen horses round out the riding stable. There is a greenhouse, garden area, and small orchard. In short, the rural, out-of-doors environment is great for students, most of whom are from the inner city. The have 500-acres in which to stretch their legs. |
