Down Home Ranch is a working farm and ranch, founded in 1989 by parents of a young daughter born with Down syndrome four years prior. It is a 410 acre working farm and ranch east of Austin, Texas, where 46 men and women with Down syndrome and other disabilities live with friends who work beside them. They raise cattle, chickens, and an occasional pig or two to feed themselves, along with flowers and vegetables in the greenhouses and gardens. Stop by if you're in the neighborhood, and they'll show you around!
