Located in the hills of East Texas, in the center of Cass County, our Vineyard offers people the opportunity to "pick-your-own" muscadines. For years, these native American grapes (vitis rotundifolia) have been favorites for making jellies, jams, wines, and pies!
The vineyard was planted where the O'Farrell, Texas, post office was located and operated from 1886 until 1905. The barn where the "U-Pick-Em" is operated was built from the salvaged lumber from the old 2-room O'Farrell school house. Thus, the name: "O'Farrell Vineyard"!
The first acre of muscadines was planted in February, 2006, and was first opened for pickin' on September 1, 2008. We now have 14 varieties of muscadines to choose from. Their names are Sweet Jenny, Rosa, Darlene, Ison, Black Fry, Cowart, Black Beauty, Carlos, Bronze Fry, Supreme, Noble, Hunt, Nesbit, and Sugargate.
We are open for picking from August 22 thru October 15 (CLOSED ON SUNDAYS, MONDAYS, AND TUESDAYS). We will also be open on Labor Day Monday. Hours for picking are 8:00 A.M - 7:00 P.M.
We sell by "5-quart" quantities... cash or checks only (No Credit Cards). We have plenty of buckets for picking, however, please bring containers to take your grapes home in.
WE WILL SEE YOU IN THE VINEYARD!!
