Prairie View, Texas, is primarily a college town centered around Prairie View A&M University, which is the second-oldest public institution of higher education in the state. Visitors can explore the university campus, including its recreation center and various student-focused events. Outside of the university, the city also has hotels, businesses, restaurants, and a water park at Tapscott Public Park.
Located on the campus of Prairie View A&M, the the Governor Bill and Vara Daniel Farm and Ranch is more than farmland—it’s a center for innovation, hands-on learning, and groundbreaking research that is changing our future for the better. Spanning over 770 acres (just over HALF of PVAMU’s sprawling 1,440-acre campus), the farm is the backbone of the College of Agriculture, Food, and Natural Resources’ Academic, Research, and Extension programs.
