Mission Statement

The mission of The George Ranch is to engage students and community members in a compelling educational experience focused on the history of Texas and conveyed through the legacy of a single pioneer family.

Description

Founded in 1824, the ranch’s legacy is woven throughout the fabric of our Fort Bend community. School groups and the general public experience the Ranch and explore 100 years of Texas history in an interactive and authentic environment through tours and educational experiences. The ranch’s history began in 1824 when Henry and Nancy Jones received a league of land along the Brazos River in the Mexican territory known as Tejas as members of Stephen F. Austin’s "Old 300." Today, the ranch’s fertile soil and natural resources enable the HGRA to continue its educational mission.
