Old Rucker Park is an approximately 10-acre tract of land that was once a commercial nursery and is home to a variety of species of plants and trees. The rolling topography of the property is highlighted by a small stream that runs through the park. While a small section of the site has been developed into the Old Rucker Farm, approximately 7.5 acres remain to be planned and developed into a passive recreational space.

The Old Rucker Farm is the home base of the city’s community agriculture program which was developed in 2018 with collaboration and guidance from numerous residents and community organizations. It includes an organically-grown vegetable, fruit, and cut-flower gardens, community garden plots, and an outdoor classroom, located within Old Rucker Park. The community agriculture program will evolve over time, striving to best serve and meet the needs of the entire community.
