The Bell Springs Maker Community

Winery, Brewery, and Artisan Space Leasing

Building a Hub for Beverage and Artisan Makers in the Texas Hill Country

Bell Springs Winery and Brewery is more than a destination for handcrafted wine and beer. Bell Springs is becoming a home for beverage innovators and artisan creators of all kinds. Located in Dripping Springs, just twenty five minutes from Austin and a little over an hour from San Antonio, our property sits at the center of one of the fastest growing regions in Texas. The Hill Country continues to attract new residents, tourists, and businesses every year, making this the ideal place to launch or expand your craft.


Our twenty two acre property offers more than beautiful views. It offers opportunity. We are building a collaborative community designed for startup wineries, breweries, beverage makers, and artisans who want space, resources, and a supportive environment to grow.

Why Makers Choose Bell Springs

Launching a beverage or artisan brand is exciting, but it can also be expensive and isolating. At Bell Springs, we believe collaboration is the key to long term success. Instead of carrying the burden alone, you can share infrastructure, pool resources, and tap into a built in community of fans.

Prime Location

Minutes from Austin and close to San Antonio, Bell Springs benefits from heavy tourism and strong local growth. The Hill Country has become one of the most visited destinations in Texas for wine, beer, and artisan experiences.

Flexible Leasing

From indoor build out spaces to land lease opportunities, we work with each maker to create solutions that make sense for their business and support their long term growth within the Bell Springs community.

Contract Brewing and Winemaking

For startup breweries and wineries, we can handle production on site, allowing you to get your brand off the ground quickly with lower upfront costs.

Shared Resources and Support

Instead of building everything from scratch, you gain access to shared infrastructure, collective marketing, and the support of other makers on the property.

Growing Destination

Each maker brings in their own fans, and together we create a much larger audience. The result is a vibrant, diverse destination for locals and visitors alike.

Events and Experiences

Bell Springs is not just a production space, it is a place where makers can showcase their work through tastings, markets, private events, and community gatherings, creating more opportunities to connect directly with customers.

More Than Beverages:

A Place for All Artisan Makers

While Bell Springs is rooted in wine and beer, our vision reaches far beyond beverages. We welcome all types of artisans to join the community, whether you create food, art, or specialty goods.


Bell Springs is a natural home for artisans who want to produce, share, and sell their craft. From candle makers and ceramicists to bakers, woodworkers, and small batch food producers, our property shows how well different types of creators can thrive in one place.


By combining beverage makers with a broader range of artisans, we create a destination that appeals to families, food lovers, and curious visitors. Guests might come for a glass of wine but leave with fresh pasta for dinner and handmade candles for their table. Every new maker enriches the experience and adds more value to the community.

The industry is shifting in powerful ways, and going it alone is no longer the best path forward for most creators. Makers succeed when they work side by side, sharing resources, ideas, and the energy that comes from being part of a larger community.

The Benefits of a Shared Maker Community

Shared Expenses Lower Costs

Access space, utilities, and resources without the burden of building everything yourself.

Cross Promotion Expands Reach

Visitors who arrive for one maker quickly become customers for many.

Destination Status Builds Fast

The more makers who join, the more reasons people have to visit, creating a dynamic property with something for everyone.

Supportive Environment

Makers learn from one another, share ideas, and build businesses in an atmosphere of collaboration.

"Makers" Make The Numbers Work

Our Vision for the Future

Bell Springs is becoming a village of makers. We envision dozens of creators across food, beverage, and artisan goods, each with their own identity but united by a shared commitment to craft and community.


Families can spend the day exploring the property, kids can enjoy discovering new foods, and adults can experience a diverse mix of wine, beer, and artisan products in one place. Together, we are building something more than a business. We are creating a destination.
