Dr. Joseph M. and Sarah Pound Farmstead
Dr. Joseph M. and Sarah Pound Farmstead, Pioneer farmstead museum in Dripping Springs, United States.
The five-acre farmstead includes a two-room log cabin with a breezeway, barn, smokehouse, windmill, and heritage gardens reflecting 1850s Texas life.
Doctor Joseph Pound established this 750-acre farm in 1854 after returning from the Mexican-American War and completing his medical studies in Kentucky.
The farmstead functioned as a medical office, hospital, church, school, and post office, forming the central point of the developing Dripping Springs community.
Located at 419-B Founders Park Road in Dripping Springs, Texas, the museum preserves the original structure inhabited by the Pound family until 1983.
The property features a 500-year-old Heritage Oak tree and antique roses transported from Mississippi by Sarah Pound in 1853.
