A delightful 1874 Victorian farmhouse
Take a step back into history at the Zimmerman House, a Victorian era farmhouse, built in 1874 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places. This beautiful farmhouse is a perfect reflection of typical Columbia River dairy farm life in the late 1800s. The Zimmerman Heritage Farm is a unique cultural education and recreational resource that is being created for the benefit of the public on a 5.98-acre historic site in Gresham, Oregon.

You're Invited!
You bring a picnic basket, or pick up something delicious to eat from a Downtown restaurant or the Gresham Farmers' Market, and we'll provide the fun with an opportunity to take a closer look at the future of Gresham parks.
Parks Picnic on the Plaza, a first-year event produced by the City in partnership with the Center for the Arts Foundation, Gresham Downtown Development Association, and the Historic Downtown Gresham Business Association, features:

  • Lively music by the Federal Cigar Jug Band
  • Old-fashioned field games – including baby races to crown the fastest future parks user!
  • Prizes
  • Photo gallery of winners from the Aug. 1 "Picture Your Parks" community photo contest
  • Information vendors representing a variety of community organizations and programs including People for Parks; EastSide United FC; El Programa Hispano; and the City's Our Parks, Our Future outreach program. Sign up to stay involved.

Our Parks, Our Future, which launched this spring, asks a simple question: What can the community do to keep Gresham parks going today, and growing to meet the needs of tomorrow?
