AZ Living: Sahuaro Ranch Park
Sahuaro Ranch Park is an iconic Glendale, Arizona destination. Growing up, I spent a lot of time at this park. It’s such a fun and magical part of this state. Not only for the historic buildings, that preserve the farming history of Arizona, but also for the peacocks who roam freely around the grounds.
This park is an amazing gathering place for families across the state. It has baseball fields where groups get together for practice and tournaments. There are playgrounds, volley ball areas, soccer fields, and places to have a party. One of the best things about this park is the ramada area. It’s perfect for parties and BBQs with the huge grills! There’s counter space and sinks too. So you can really grill up some good food, while everyone has fun!
Walking around Sahuaro Ranch park, you’re sure to see the Peacocks! They roam free and are used to people, just don’t antagonize them! They’ve been there my whole life and little kids love to see them walking around. Sometimes they’ll even show off their beautiful tail feathers!
As you walk the grounds you’ll see historic buildings that have been preserved. Some are even decorated with artifacts from the time, to give you a feel for the history. Not only are they full of history and a great way to learn more about Arizona, they’re also beautiful. You may recognize some of these buildings because they’re a popular spot for Christmas and Engagement photos. So you’re also sure to see a photographer when you walk around too!
Finishing up your tour, you’ll notice the beautiful rose garden. During the winter it’s cut back but come spring, it’s a gorgeous site to see and smell! It’s also the perfect location for a wedding ceremony, which are also common during the year.
