PROTECT… HISTORY
Kinder Farm Park is named for the German-born Kinder family who over the course of 80 years expanded initial land acquisitions into a large scale agricultural operation.
During the early 1900’s the Kinders focused on produce sales and also sold milk, eggs and ice to neighbors. They took their produce to markets in Baltimore by horse and wagon and later by truck. After World War II, the long hours and dropping profits at the markets led to their expansion into raising hogs, turkeys and later exclusively beef cattle. In 1979 the Kinder brothers sold 288 acres to Anne Arundel County in the interest of preserving open space and farm history.
This land became Kinder Farm Park.

For almost two decades, families have been enjoying Kinder Farm Park events such as the annual Fall Harvest Festival, Jingle Bell Hayride & Meet the Kids Event. Educational adventures inspire visitors through the Behind the Scenes tour and the displays featured in the Farmhouse, Historic Tobacco Barn & Visitor Center. People of all ages enjoy the park’s playgrounds, trails, natural areas and farm animals. Our pavilions and picnic areas are home to many special gatherings celebrating life events.
