Age Recommendations: In my opinion, ages 2 to 10 will love this park. The younger ages have a separate tractor to play on and the older kids will love the variety of ways to climb and get down from the large barn structure.

Inclusive Features: Rubber flooring helps with accessibility and the scavenger hunt items are posted on floor level, with some of the emblems to find at that height as well. There are no other inclusive features (swings, ramps, etc) at Farmstead Park.

Swings: There are only two traditional belt swings, no baby swings or accessible swings.

Water Features: None.

Farmstead Park Unique Features

If you’ve been following our adventures for a while, you know that we LOVE playgrounds with a scavenger hunt! The picture below shows the different items to find around the park and the second picture shows the size/shape of the emblems to spot. My girls have so much fun finding everything and then turning it into a game of how quick they can find them in order.

The large barn-shaped play structure is multi-level with many different ladders, slides and climbing wall. The telescope at the top was a great extra touch!
