One of the highlights of Maybury State Park is the Living Farm. It was established in 1975 hen the park first opened. The Living Farm represents a small family farm where general farming practices are demonstrated. The area illustrates life on a turn of the century farm. The farm staff invites you to come out for a visit to see the animals and experience the sights, sounds and smells of a working farm.

The park was developed to give people in the metropolitan area an opportunity to get involved in outdoor recreation activities. There is a fishing pond, playground equipment, sports fields, picnic areas, and miles of trails designed for bicycling, hiking, horseback riding or cross-country skiing. There is no hunting or swimming. The focus of the park is farming from 1900 – 1930. It is open all year for day visitors, and groups are welcome. Guided tours of the farm are available.
