Walking is an important element to maintaining a healthy lifestyle, and it's a great way to get outdoors. We have a beautiful pathway around the park waiting for you to enjoy!

Happy Easter!! Happy Spring!!

Hope everyone has a Happy Chinese New Year!

In Celebration of National Milk Day we would like to look back at when this was still a dairy farm. The Prusch family ran a dairy farm on the land that is now Emma Prusch Farm Park. Emma spent her life on the family farm and helped raise her two brothers Nick and William Junior and her sister Mathilda. When Emma’s father passed away in 1949 she took over the family dairy.

Come meet a new friend at Emma Prusch! Gracie Mae loves making new friends!
