Chances are good that somewhere down that road, you’ll come across some remarkable Texas Hill Country food finds: a farm stand selling fresh, homegrown produce; a goat farmer selling hand-crafted goat cheeses; ranchers selling sausages made from game meets; a brewery producing fine beer in the European style of the region’s founders; a winery creating world-class wines from grapes grown in Texas; and some fine eateries – from roadside stands to world-class restaurants.
