Emma Prusch Farm Park is a 43.5-acre public park located in East San Jose that showcases the former farm property of San Jose resident Emma Prusch, who donated her land to the city in 1962. The park is intended to preserve the region's agricultural history and showcases the city's largest preserved freestanding barn, which is used by the Future Farmers of America and the city's 4-H groups for urban livestock raising. It also preserves a rare fruit orchard, which is operated as a cooperative project by the California Rare Fruit Growers Association, showcasing more than 125 species of rare and exotic fruit trees, including subtropical plantings. The park's Veggielution community farm spans approximately six acres and is staffed by youth and adult volunteers, who strive to create a sustainable urban food solution for the city. Several acres of open grassland are also offered, along with demonstration gardens and picnic areas.
