Welcome to Persimmon Hill at Bouldin Food Forest, a unique opportunity to discover and enjoy an organic farm in Central Texas! You will be staying on a true regenerative production farm, where the owners work year round to provide the freshest, most flavorful vegetables and fruits to Austin and the surrounding communities.
The house you will stay in was designed and built from the ground up by your hosts, who strive to make your visit relaxing and memorable.
The space
The house consists of two living spaces; one side is a comfy living room with a loft bed above, the other side is a kitchen and dining area with cozy chairs and a couch. Thereâs even a chalkboard wall where you can write your name or draw a picture for future guests to enjoy!
The guest house features a screened in porch with a swing chair, and a cafe table and chairs for outdoor dining. We use a composting toilet system in the main house, and a separate luxurious shower house with all the amenities included.
All running water on the property comes from a rainwater collection system, and is filtered using the most advanced UV and charcoal filters for pure, clean water right from the tap!
Guest access
The entire guest house is yours to enjoy, as well as the pool and yoga deck in the backyard. The guest house is located next to the host main house.
You are welcome to explore the farm and surrounding 150 acres of land, which we lease for cattle grazing.
Other things to note
You will be staying on an actual working organic farm! This means there may be noise, smells, barking, mud, slobber, and ducks quacking at any time.
Our guesthouse strives to be as environmentally friendly as possible.
Did you know that Americans waste approximately 2.3 BILLION gallons of fresh clean water a DAY just flushing toilets? Persimmon Hill has a Separett brand composting toilet system. While it may be an adjustment, weâve provided clear instructions and everything you need to have a comfortable experience.
All running water is collected using a rainwater catchment system, and all drains use gray water waste systems to recycle water back into the environment.
We ask that you use only the soaps, shampoos and conditioners provided as they are compatible with being recycled.
