The Family of GOMEZ FAMILY FARM
Gómez Family Farm is a 50 acre family owned farm located in Flint, Texas that produces vegetables, fruits, honey, eggs, fish, pork and beef to feed our family. We incorporate many homesteading skills on our farm to be self-sufficient. We have opened our farm cabin for short term rentals. Come for a visit to relax, breathe in the fresh air, and enjoy the great outdoors while building memories with your family on our farm.
We are a veteran owned farm. We have 3 generations of family members who have served our country. We love the outdoors, farming, and teaching others.
We know how important it is for families and friends to have some down time together to make memories, reconnect, and to rejuvenate. We love to provide a place that affords all of that in an outdoorsy atmosphere.
