As with the rest of the Midwestern states, farms are a defining feature of the Minnesotan landscape. While many still operate as working farms, others have been converted to farm parks. These green spaces afford families the opportunity to take to the lake or trail together on land that may have once-grown crops like canola or wheat. Many of these places can be easily accessed from the Twin Cities. Read on to discover some of the best farm parks in Minnesota.
Most people are familiar with their communities’ neighborhood parks which feature playgrounds and picnic tables. While these are a convenient way to entertain one’s kids for an hour or so, an even better diversion is a trip to a farm park. With many more options for fun – from biking, swimming, and exploring the property’s trails – farm parks offer many hours of entertainment fit for the whole family.
