MetroParks Farm

Open seasonally, this 402-acre working farm promotes agriculture through educational programming, tours, display areas, and a children's playroom. Beginning in the 1910s, the property served as the Mahoning County Experimental Farm. The Ohio State University managed it until 1990, researching improvements in planting, livestock production, and pest management. Since 1990, in line with its mission to preserve open space, Mill Creek MetroParks has operated the property under a lease from Mahoning County.

Also located at this facility:

• McMahon Hall--this popular multipurpose hall is available for rental, year-round.

• Access to the MetroParks Bikeway--an 11-mile paved trail for hikers, skaters, and bicyclists is located at the north end of the parking lot.
