Farm River State Park, State park in East Haven, Connecticut, United States.
The 62-acre Farm River State Park extends along the western shore of Farm River estuary, featuring marshlands, tidal wetlands, and a rocky shore.
The Connecticut State and US Fish and Wildlife Service purchased 72 acres of land for $1.75 million in 1998 to establish the protected area.
The park functions as an educational site where Quinnipiac University installed wireless communication systems to facilitate environmental research and learning activities.
Access to the boat launch and docks requires special passes obtained through Quinnipiac University, which manages these facilities for Connecticut Department of Energy.
Tidal marsh flooding creates a natural division of the park into upper and lower sections, providing different environments for numerous bird species.
