After being inspired by some of the other projects, I thought I would perhaps share our own dream / project. We recently purchased 28 acres in Central TX - close to Bastrop and Smithville. The property is 1/3 coastal pasture and 2/3 wooded - mostly oak and cedar.
Our dream is to own a fully operational olive tree farm and wedding venue / event facility. We are planning on building a rustic style barn and small cottage that will be used for business. For those that don't know, olive trees are a new but growing industry in TX. Our goal is to eventually have 14-20 acres of orchard, or 3000 to 4000 trees.
As purchased, the property has no improvements - water or electricity. No buildings, some perimeter 5 strand fencing. The soil is a nice sandy loam. Enough talking and some pictures:
