Chestnut Square Heritage Village

🌾✨ The adventure is almost here! Prairie Adventure Camp kicks off NEXT WEEK at Chestnut Square Heritage Village, and we couldn't be more excited! Your little pioneers (ages 7–14) will trade screens for blacksmithing, weaving, and so much more; all set in the heart of historic downtown McKinney. 🐴🔨

But the fun doesn't stop there! We still have spots available for our other summer camps running throughout June and July. Each 3-day session is packed with hands-on pioneer skills, period games, pioneer clothing, and memories that'll last a lifetime.

✨ OUR FIRST EVER CRAZY QUILT SHOW WEEKEND RECAP ✨

What a weekend. What a COMMUNITY. From the bottom of our hearts, THANK YOU. The turnout for our very first Crazy Quilt Show blew us away, and none of it would have been possible without every single one of you who showed up, shared the love, and made this event everything we dreamed it could be and more.

A massive thank you to Good Morning Texas and Good Day Fox 4 for featuring us on their shows and helping us spread the word. Having that kind of support means the world to a first-time event, and we are so incredibly grateful. 📺💛

Shoutout to our amazing sponsor Downtown Dry Goods for making the first-ever Crazy Quilt Show a truly beautiful experience.
