There’s a reason Gladden Farms is applauded as one of the “Top 10 Master-Planned Communities” in Arizona. Gladden Farms is a uniquely welcoming and fun community connected to an abundance of family amenities, including a new six-acre park at the heart of the community and a Fry’s Food Marketplace starting construction soon.
These new amenities are in addition to the community’s soccer fields and neighborhood parks, green space, landscaped paseos connecting to scenic trails, playgrounds, playfields, a splash pad and picnic and BBQ areas.
Welcome to the Paws ‘n Claws park!
