The land for this 42-acre (170,000 m2) farm park was donated by Emma Prusch to San Jose, California in 1962 to keep for agricultural purposes, and provides an introduction to farm life. The park is operated as a small farm, with barn animals maintained by 4-H and Future Farmers of America. The farm also has a rare fruit orchard, a deciduous fruit orchard and two community gardens. In the spring, the park offeres guided tours for K-3 school groups. These tours provide a sensory education emphasis while students learn about gardens, fruit orchard, poultry and livestock.
