Hemingway Hill
A beautiful, regenerative farm where you will experience the peace and calm nature brings. Hemingway’s U-Pick tulip and flower fields, signature fresh honey, warm apple cider donuts and old fashioned Christmas tree experience, will cause you to return through every season, to this tranquil special place. We're located in Terrell, TX and just a short trip from Forney, Kaufman and the greater Dallas area.
Our Seasons
Hemingway Hill is a privately owned farm that is open for the public to come wonder and enjoy its natural beauty through three unique seasons.
Spring U-Pick Tulips at Our Tulipville!
Our spring Tulipville begins the last weekend in February when we host our U-pick Tulips event from our fields of regeneratively grown tulips. In the tulip tent, you can order a wide variety of some of our top commercial-grade bulbs. On the weekends, we will have some fun farm games for your kids and offer tasty snacks and coffee from the Hemingway House for you to enjoy.
U-Pick Flowers and Sunflower Field Experience
Our Summer Bouquets season invites you to craft your unique bouquet at our U-pick Cut Flower and Sunflower fields from June 7th to July 4th. Enjoy handmade Apple cider donuts on Saturdays, with more food offerings to be added in the coming seasons.
Opens June 7, on Fridays (8:30 am - 2 pm) and Saturdays (8:30 am - 5 pm) until July 4th (extended hours).
Christmas Tree Sale
Hemingway Hill’s most popular season is our Christmas Tree Sale. We open the weekend prior to Thanksgiving this year for customers to purchase their fresh-cut Christmas trees, while our baby trees grow and offer hand-tied wreaths and garlands. We also offer pictures with Santa, wreath-making classes, s’mores and kids hay rides.
Sometimes Getting Out in Nature is All You Need to Do.
Hemingway Hill sits on a beautiful piece of land, just 45 minutes outside of Dallas, that gifts its visitors with calm and peace. Science has proven that spending just two hours in nature has a dramatic and positive effect on us both physically and mentally. Even listening to songbirds or the rustle of the leaves in trees will make you 30 percent more relaxed and we have plenty of both of these to share at Hemingway Hill.
We Are Educators
Hemingway Hill’s manifesto is to restore regenerative farming practices, to participate in reforestation and distribution of vitex trees for bees and milkweed for monarch butterflies, and to inspire everyone to have a farm in their portfolio.
Whether small or vast, we sincerely believe in the value, enjoyment, and diversification that comes with owning land. We also believe it’s important to introduce these ideals to children at a young age. We aim to educate the next generation of farmers. To that end, we support arbor days in schools and encourage enjoyment of nature through our unique family and school programs.
Whether it’s agriculture education, tulip planting experiences in our fields, or children’s birds, butterflies and bees nature class, we offer unique hands-on, creative educational experiences that center on a connection with nature.

Apple Cider Donuts
We believe wholeheartedly that eating an apple cider donut will greatly enhance your farm experience.
After traveling across country, visiting farms, we found the most amazing donut recipe, invested in one of the best donut making machines and even went donut making class. When you hear the large black bell ring at the farm, that means somebody just made fresh warm donuts for you.
Photography
Are you a photographer searching for an exquisite place to shoot family photos? We offer seasonal fields of bluebonnets, one-hundred-year-old oak trees, fields of sunflowers or tulips, and old barn or Christmas trees.
