Riverdale Farm is a 7.5-acre urban farmland located in the heart of Toronto’s Cabbagetown neighbourhood. Composed of natural wooded areas, historic barns, and vegetable and herb gardens, Riverdale Farm is also home to a number of farm animals, making it a great place for families to visit. Where else can you find cows, sheep, goats, horses, chickens, pigs, and ducks in the centre of Toronto? Across the street is the Toronto Necropolis, a historic 19th-century cemetery known for its distinct High Victorian Gothic architecture and beautiful scenery. One of the city's oldest cemeteries, the Toronto Necropolis is where many famous Torontonians are buried: William Lyon Mackenzie, George Brown, and the late Jack Layton, to name a few. The lush, leafy landscapes of Cabbagetown provide the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of downtown Toronto.
