Trails upon trails for miles on end! The beauty and diversity of the land can be fully appreciated at this place. The farm has a handful of different animals including: pigs, cows, chickens and more, not including the wild animals. On my first trip here, I saw chipmunks, a large woodpecker, amongst a slew of other wild animals.
This place is so beautiful. One of my favorite places in Indiana. I recently had some visitors from south Georgia come and visit and they loved it here as well.
Love the trails and homestead. Cool place to walk around for a couple hours.
Great place to get away for a couple hours
Maple Sugar Time Festival! Go to this (it occurs in the spring)! Great for kids and even for adults. It's about an hour guided edicational hike. It's also quite a sensory experience. Kids can drill a tap into a stump. The smell of boiling maple sap is FANTASTIC. There are animals to pet (they smell less fantastic), samples to taste, forest and farmhouse to see, stories to hear.nnThe Parks Department staff and volunteers are excellent. They seem knowledgeable and friendly; I learned bits of American history, biology of trees, and climate science in the hour I was at the Maple Sugar Festival. I'm sure other events are similarly valuable.nnI'm also impressed with the accessibility at the farm. There are wheelchair ramps at (and inside) the historic farmhouse. For the trails, there are tracked machines that can carry a wheelchair with a person on it. The trails are wide and well cared for.
