Arnosky Family Farm: Honor System Flowers at the Big Blue Barn — traveler post in Blanco County

Arnosky Family Farm: Honor System Flowers at the Big Blue Barn

Arnosky Family Farm is a family run cut flower farm on Ranch Road 2325 east of Blanco, near the Ranch Road 165 intersection, and its Big Blue Barn is a well known Hill Country landmark. Inside the barn, buckets of fresh cut flowers and bouquets line the tables: sunflowers, zinnias, snapdragons, celosia, marigolds, and more, depending on the season. The market also sells potted plants, herbs, and seasonal produce grown on the farm. It runs on the honor system, so you pick out what you want and pay on your own, with cash, check, or Venmo, which means it helps to bring cash or have the app ready. Visitors are welcome to walk out to the flower fields, and you may meet a farm cat wandering the barn. Come early in the day for the best selection, since popular bouquets go fast. The stand is typically open daily during daytime hours, but stock and what is blooming change through the year. #myitinerary

Johnson City Light Trail — traveler post in Blanco County

Johnson City Light Trail

#hellochristmas The Johnson City light trail connects three major displays as part of the Lights Spectacular festival. 1. The highlight is PEC headquarters (Pedernales Electric Cooperative), where millions of lights transform the oak trees into towering illuminated canopies that can be viewed from the sidewalk or through the central lawn area. 2. From PEC, visitors follow the walking route to City Park, which adds additional trees, picnic areas, and lighted pathways. The park is flat and accessible, making it easy for wheelchairs and strollers 3. End your trail at the Blanco County Courthouse, one of the most recognized holiday buildings in Texas due to its full exterior lighting that outlines every architectural detail. All displays are free to visit and require no tickets. Parking is spread across downtown streets and lots, with crowds heaviest on weekends when food vendors, local shops, and seasonal events sometimes operate near the courthouse lawn. The full route is walkable and can be explored in any order.

Don't miss the pristine beauty of the state park on your Austin trip — traveler post in Blanco County

Don't miss the pristine beauty of the state park on your Austin trip

If you like nature and a wild feel, I recommend everyone to visit this park As soon as you enter the park, there is a map, and you can choose to drive or walk, it's so hot, better drive, then there are many trails 🌟 Highlights: The most recommended is No. 1, which is the line on the north side, you must go, the waterfall is really beautiful, the river water is dry in summer, but the spectacle formed by the erosion of the terrain is still there, it feels like a primitive tribe
