Emma Prusch Farm Park spans 43.5 acres throughout East San José, originally opened to the public in 1962 following land donations by area resident Emma Prusch. Today, the park preserves Prusch's former farm and showcases the region's agricultural history, including the city's largest preserved barn, which is utilized by the area's 4-H groups and the Future Farmers of America organization for urban livestock populations. A rare fruit orchard is maintained in cooperation with the California Rare Fruit Growers Association, highlighting more than 125 rare tree species. Other attractions include the Veggielution community farm, which strives to create sustainable urban agricultural solutions for the San José region. In October, visitors can attend the park's annual Harvest Festival, which features multicultural dance presentations, hay wagon rides, and a 4-H animal exposition.
