On May 14th Waterloo council unanimously approved a recommendation directing staff to move forward with community engagements over the future of the Eby Farmstead within Waterloo Park.
The farmstead consists of an equipment barn and several fenced animal enclosures which house a small herd of farm animals for 5-6 months each year.
Robin Milne, Waterloo’s Director of Parks, Forestry and Cemetery Services told council that they want to have a plan for the Eby Farmstead by the end of the summer ahead of the process for the 2025 Waterloo Park plan. That could include “improved amenities to keep the farmstead, or reimagining the space.”
Details on the Eby Farmstead public consultation process are available on engagewr.ca.
