The Allen County Farm Park was created in 1982, through a 90
year, no cost lease agreement with the Allen County Commissioners
and the Johnny Appleseed Metropolitan Park District. The lease
consisted of a 45 acre tract of land that was originally part of
the Allen County Home. In 2003 an additional 18.8 acres were added
to the 45 acres by a donation from the Park District Foundation of
Allen County.
The Allen
County Farm Park may be rented for special occasions. This unique
rustic barn is the perfect setting for company picnics, family and
class reunions and wedding receptions. Hayrides are offered for a
minimal fee during the Autumn months. This is a seasonal facility
and open by reservation only.
Adjacent to the Allen County Farm Park is a 2.5 mile bridle
trail. The parking lot and entrance is just north of the Farm
Park's entrance. The bridle trail is free, handicap accessible and
open to the public every day during the daylight hours. Allen
