Welcome to Farmington Nature Park

Picture
Farmington Nature Park is located in the historic community of Farmington, North Carolina. The 60 acres of natural landscape are owned and operated by the Farmington Community Center, a non-profit organization whose mission is to "Preserve the Past to Promote the Future." The Farmington Nature Park is a new park in it's early stage of construction. The first phase of the project has been completed which included the construction of a Hiking/Biking trail, installation of a kiosk displaying park information, and placement of trail markers along the trail.

Read more about us in this recent article from the Winston-Salem Journal.

To access the Hiking/Biking trail, visitors can park in the North Parking lot near the ball-field and begin hiking the trail at the Farmington Nature Trail marker, located near the park kiosk.
Now that the first phase of the park project has been completed, the Farmington Nature Park Committee will work toward working with other Boy Scout Troops and volunteer groups to continue the trails, build a small bridge across a low area of the trail, and building benches along side the trails. The remaining projects will be completed as funds become available.

Below are areas where future construction is planned.
This area is located above the ball field and near the park's entrance.
It will be the location of a new parking lot and will have two picnic shelters with a restroom facility.
The park's woodlands will house a 20 hole disc golf course. There is plenty of acreage available for additional hiking/biking trails as well.
A section of the park's open field area will also be used for a disc golf course for families to use and for local competitions.

The future amphitheater site is located near the bottom of a sloped field that is approximately 2 1/2 acres. A picnic shelter will be located at the top of the field and additional picnic tables will be positioned around the perimeter of the wooded area. The open field will be grassed and used as an all-purpose field for families to use for recreational games and activities. A waterless restroom will be installed near this area to accommodate hikers/bikers and groups using the civic campground.
