Fisher Farm

Fisher Farm consists of a 200-acre park in the early stages of development. A fabulous place for walkers, the farm is a natural area populated with a variety of wildlife, insects, and plant life. Fisher Farm offers four miles of mountain bike trails with beginner to advanced challenges and an archery range (see below for more information on the archery range). The park is now accessible from the north by the West Branch Greenway.
