Clark's Elioak Farm is a children's playground and petting farm. Dotted with cartoon structures and antique farm equipment, this small but wide open patch of rolling hills will transport you to a different world, one populated by adorable animals that are eager to make friends. Say hello an emu, pet some goats and be pals with a pony. Clark's Elioak Farm raises its own grass-fed beef and is part of the MD state government's Farmland Forever protection program.

The Oak View Community Center is located on a tree-filled campus on the east side of Oak Lawn. Its field house contains many museum-quality nature displays of the area's early history, as well exhibits of sea creatures, animals, shells, rocks and minerals.
