Knott's Berry Farm is a popular theme park in Buena Park, California. It is currently owned by the Cedar Fair company. The park sits on fifty-seven acres of land, features forty rides, attracts around four million visitors each year, and is the twelfth most visited theme park in North America. Needless to say, Knott's Berry Farm is a popular place. The park originated with Walter Knott's berry farm in Orange County, California. Born in 1889, Walter Knott and his wife Cordelia were berry farmers. They sold not only berries, but berry preserves and berry pies from a roadside stand near their farm beside State Road 39, which was close to the town of Buena Park. Here's how it became a beloved theme park attraction.
