Directions to the Agricultural History Farm Park
Situated along Rock Creek in Derwood, Maryland, the Agricultural
History Farm Park is a 410-acre complex with a farmhouse,
barn, assorted farm buildings and an activity center. It serves
as the host site for the popular Harvest Festival which takes
place every October.
To interpret past farming practices, 70 acres were set aside
as an historic area. The farmhouse is currently being furnished
to reflect the home of an average turn-of-the-century family.
Programs to interpret the typical Montgomery County farmer's
lifestyle are planned for the future. Today the Farm Park
hosts seasonal festivals depicting farm life both past and
present. Other programs are scheduled by Meadowside Nature
Center and the Friends of the Agricultural History Farm park
throughout the year.
For more information, call Meadowside Nature Center at
