There are multiple area for both child play under a covered playground and a covered area for adults to use the manual workout machines. The wide open space is great for horses to get a nice ride and to rinse off at the watering areas. The lakes and streams are filled with wild life that is indigenous to the area. Just taking a walk and listening to the sounds of nature is truly calming.

This is a cute citrus themed playground honoring Davie Florida's past as a top citrus producer. At…read moreit's peak in the 1950's there were 5,000 acres of citrus fields and 40 citrus packing houses in Davie. Today less than a 100 acres of citrus remain and there are no commercial citrus producers in South Florida. The park was named after Math Igler Citrus Grove, a citrus grove and packing house that had been in operation in Davie since the 1950s. The land that was the grove is now a housing development and this park. After the packing house was dismantled, equipment including scrubber sections which cleaned the fruit; the sorting section, where workers pulled the fruit that was too small for shipping; the wax and dryer, to polish the fruit; and, the bin area to prepare the fruit for shipping were donated to the Davie Schoolhouse Museum for an exhibit on agriculture and citrus packing. You can learn more about Math Igler and the other citrus groves that once called Davie home at the museum. The 1.5 acre park has two play structures with stairs and slides. The tops of the play structures have orange trees and there's an orange juice stand that children can play in. There there are also paved walkways, benches, and a pavilion with picnic tables and grill. There is also an ADA accessible swing. The large trees in the park provide welcome shade. This is a very nice place to take the kids to play and I like how it's dedicated to the history of the citrus land it sits on.
