Farmersville’s historic downtown has brick streets and buildings connected with its agricultural past. The restored Onion Shed on South Main Street now hosts a market and community gatherings.

The Chaparral Trail begins behind the Onion Shed and downtown park, making the historic core a starting point for a longer outdoor route. The trail connects with the Northeast Texas Trail system, but surfaces and conditions vary along the wider route and should be checked before planning an extended trip.

### Places to know

**Historic Onion Shed.** A former agricultural loading facility used for markets and community events.

**Chaparral Trailhead.** A downtown trail entrance behind the Onion Shed and city park.

**Historic downtown streets.** Brick streets and older buildings provide the local commercial setting.

### Check at the address, not the town name

- Check trail conditions and the surface of the intended segment before choosing a bicycle or planning a longer outing.
- For a downtown or rural-area property, confirm jurisdiction, permits and access rights for the actual parcel rather than relying on proximity to the trail.
- School attendance zones, flood risk, HOA obligations, utilities and property taxes follow the exact address. Use current records: [TEA school district locator](https://tea.texas.gov/families-and-students/school-district-locator/school-district-locator?ref=tx.co), [FEMA flood maps](https://msc.fema.gov/portal/home?ref=tx.co), [county appraisal districts](https://comptroller.texas.gov/taxes/property-tax/county-directory/?ref=tx.co).
