Editorial Review

A working farm that is maintained as a reminder of agriculture, once the staple of Fairfax County. The park, with its Kidwell Farm, interprets agriculture, rural community life and landscape from the 1920s to 1950s. Among the attractions are its cows, pigs, chickens, goats and turkeys.

There are also a schoolhouse, a country store and equestrian facilities.

How much: This one is free, but wagon rides are $3; the park does not rent horses or provide riding lessons. Programs and prices are subject to change.

When: Dawn to dusk daily. Some attractions are open shorter hours.

Great for kids

We've visited several times and even had one of our Boys B-day parties there. Hayride for the B-day guests was arranged and it all went off without a hitch. Better to do in warm weather ... and perhaps not when a major horse show is going on. Bring your own drinks / snacks.
