Eby Farmstead, a beloved feature of Waterloo Park since the late 1960s, is undergoing a community-driven evaluation to determine its future. The Envision Eby: Farmstead Engagement is an opportunity for the community to shape the next chapter of this historic site.

Feedback from the community was collected throughout the summer of 2024 and staff will bring a report to Council in the fall that recommends either improvements for the future of Eby Farmstead, or reimagining of the space.




Background

On May 13, 2024, staff presented an initial report to Council (p. 57 of document), including:

Council approved the direction to move forward with a community engagement campaign that gauges the public’s interest in either improvements for the future of Eby Farmstead, or reimagining of the space it currently occupies.

In 2025, we will invite residents to participate in the full Waterloo Park Plan Update. Determining the future of Eby Farmstead will be the first step towards that and will lay the groundwork for broader park planning.
