4 Best Spring Activities Near Mabank, TX

1. Browse Sugar Acres Fruit Stand

Open for the season since April 1, the Sugar Acres Fruit Stand is a wonderful place to shop the very best of spring. As well as the freshest seasonal fruit and vegetables, you can also find beautiful floral arrangements and potted plants, as well as honey and preserves. Head to 104 West Eubank Street between 9:00am and 5:30pm on Tuesdays to Fridays, and 9:00am to 3:00pm on Saturday and Sunday to make the most of nature’s bounty.

2. Visit Texas Freshwater Fisheries

As you prepare for the best fishing of the year this spring, don’t forget to visit the Texas Freshwater Fisheries Center for extra inspiration. The Freshwater Fishing Hall of Fame will tell you all you need to know about the history of fishing in the area, and the aquaria will keep you informed about native species of water life. Situated at 5550 FM 2495, the center opens from Tuesday to Saturday from 9:00am to 4:00pm, and at 1:00pm on Sundays.

You might also enjoy a hike up the Wetlands Trail to learn more about aquatic habitats. And with your Ford F-150 more than capable of handling your fishing gear and any trophies you bring home, you can load it up and try your luck at Mabank City Lake afterwards.

Located at 701 South Third Street, Mabank Floral and Gifts is the perfect place if you’re looking to bring springtime into your home, or to give it as a gift to a loved one.

Visit from Monday to Friday from 9:00am to 5:00pm to view the selections and give your eyes a feast.

4. Go Wild at the First Responders PRCA Rodeo

On April 28-29 Henderson County Regional Fair Park in Athens will be the site of all the thrills and spills you need this spring. Before the rodeo has you on the edge of your seat, you can sample the best of the barbecue cook-off for just $25, with a crawfish boil and fish fry to add to the variety. There’s also a raffle and BFO-approved freestyle bullfighting to keep you entertained. The event starts at 7:30pm.

Whether it’s fishing, flowers, fruit, or flank straps, spring has something for everyone in Mabank. And there’s a perfect Ford vehicle out there for everyone, too, so don’t forget to visit us at Tri-County Ford in Mabank, TX to find yours.
