                                                 ACRE - preserving and promoting Eastern Central Texas.

ACRETEXAS

 

Preserving ...

ACRE stands for the valuable agricultural land of the Blackland Prairie and the culture that has developed on it - the historic communities of Eastern Central Texas and the unspoiled pastoral landscapes.  We are helping to preserve our area by covering news and projects that impact us.

Promoting our beautiful and fun-filled area ...

  ACRE -- your source for art, antiques, and architecture; collectibles and crafts; restaurants; and entertainment and events.  your guide to an area prized by residents and enjoyed by visitors.

  Visit the beautiful rural areas and the wonderful towns along highways 95 and 71, through the eastern part of Central Texas -- from Temple in the north, through Little River/Academy, the Salado/Holland area, Bartlett, Granger, Taylor, Coupland, Elgin, Bastrop, Smithville, to La Grange in the south.

Things to do and people to see..

  Browse the shops of picturesque downtowns for art, antiques, gifts, and fashion.  Drink in the culture of galleries, studios, museums, and notable architecture.  Dine at restaurants in venerable buildings.  Sing and dance the night away at fun-filled music venues and old-time dancehalls.  Stay in historic inns and bed & breakfasts.

  Escape from the larger, more crowded spots, and escape to the slower pace and friendly folks in the country and the small towns on the Blackland Prairie of Eastern Central Texas.
