What Is Forest Park Queens?
Forest Park is a 538-acre Queens green space that stretches from Richmond Hill through Woodhaven to Kew Gardens. It holds one of the largest continuous oak forests in the borough, a historic bandshell, a public golf course, mountain-bike trails, and a loop drive that closes to traffic on weekends. The park is bordered by Park Lane South, Myrtle Avenue, and Woodhaven Boulevard.
Forest Park has been a Queens institution since 1895, when the city assembled a patchwork of private farms and forest into a unified park under landscape designer Frederick Law Olmsted's influence. Today the park pulls weekend runners along the loop drive, mountain bikers into the wooded trails, and community groups to the bandshell for summer concerts. The Jackie Robinson Parkway runs through the middle of the park, which splits it into north and south halves with pedestrian bridges connecting the two. The J/Z trains at Woodhaven Boulevard and 104th Street give transit access to the park's eastern edge.
How to Get There From Terp Bros Ozone Park
Terp Bros NYC Ozone Park sits about 3 miles south of Forest Park's southern entrance. By car, the drive runs about 8 to 12 minutes via Woodhaven Boulevard or Cross Bay Boulevard to Atlantic Avenue. By transit, the Q11 bus along Cross Bay Boulevard connects to Woodhaven Boulevard feeders toward Park Lane South.
From our shop at 135-26 Cross Bay Boulevard, the most direct drive north is Cross Bay to Atlantic Avenue, then Atlantic to Park Lane South at the park's southern perimeter. An alternate route takes Woodhaven Boulevard straight north, which delivers you to the 104th Street or Forest Park Drive entrances. Transit riders can combine the Q11 Cross Bay bus with a Woodhaven Boulevard transfer for the park's east side, or take the A train to Rockaway Boulevard and bus north. Parking is generally available along Park Lane South and side streets in Richmond Hill and Woodhaven; on summer weekends the bandshell lot fills quickly.
What to Order Before Forest Park Queens
Pre-order ahead of your visit to Forest Park on our menu and choose pickup. Orders are typically ready in 15 to 30 minutes, which is faster than trying to find a shop near the park or waiting in a weekend walk-in line. Every product is lab-tested under NY OCM standards before it reaches the shelf.
Forest Park days often run long, whether you are hiking the mountain-bike trails, walking the loop with family, or catching a bandshell show. The NYC Smoke-Free Air Act applies across the entire park footprint, so budtenders at our Ozone Park shop tend to steer park-bound shoppers toward sealed, low-dose products that can be enjoyed off-property before or after the trip. Keep factory-sealed packaging intact inside the park, and plan the enjoyment window around the ride home.

Forest Park visitors ask the same questions park-goers across the borough ask: whether on-site smoking is allowed, whether sealed products travel into the park, and whether Terp Bros has any relationship with NYC Parks. The answers are consistent across every Queens landmark.
Is it legal to consume at Forest Park Queens? Cannabis consumption rules vary by venue. Most public-park and landmark policies mirror the NYC Smoke-Free Air Act, which restricts smoking on property. See Where You Can Smoke.
Can I bring my purchase inside Forest Park Queens? Sealed, unopened packages generally fall under normal possession rules (up to 3 ounces of flower or 24 grams of concentrate). Venue-specific bag checks can apply during bandshell concerts or festivals.
Does Terp Bros sponsor or partner with Forest Park Queens? No. Terp Bros NYC is an independent CAURD-licensed dispensary operating under NY OCM License OCM-CAURD-23-000020 (Astoria) / OCM-CAURD-25-000294 (Ozone Park). We provide practical information for customers visiting the park and have no formal relationship with NYC Parks.
What First-Time Queens Shoppers Should Know About the Forest Park Route
First-time Forest Park visitors often miss how the park is split by the Jackie Robinson Parkway, which can change your entry plan entirely. A few practical notes, plus the reality that every product at Terp Bros is lab-tested under NY OCM standards, will keep your trip straightforward.
Bring valid government-issued ID showing 21 or older; the check happens at our Ozone Park door. Order on the menu before leaving home. If you are headed for the bandshell, enter near Woodhaven Boulevard and Forest Park Drive; if you are heading for the mountain-bike trails, enter off Park Lane South in Kew Gardens. Watch for the loop drive schedule; on weekends, large portions close to vehicles and become pedestrian and cycling space. Respect NYC Parks rules. The Smoke-Free Air Act applies park-wide, so plan to enjoy your purchase off-property and keep packaging factory-sealed. Pack water, especially in summer, and leash dogs on trails. Finally, plan for daylight; Forest Park paths are wooded and can feel darker than the surrounding streets, so allow extra time to get back to Woodhaven Boulevard or Park Lane South before sunset.
How the Forest Park Route Compares Across Queens Neighborhoods
Forest Park is the most wooded, quietest landmark Terp Bros serves. Compared with Aqueduct or Belmont, where event traffic drives the schedule, Forest Park runs on a walker-and-runner rhythm that makes pickup timing much more flexible.
Compared with Flushing Meadows-Corona Park, where monuments and museums anchor the day, Forest Park is about trees, trails, and the bandshell, and you can easily spend a half-day without crossing paths with a single venue. Compared with Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge to the south, Forest Park is a shorter trip for Richmond Hill and Woodhaven residents and requires less prep for a weekend visit. Compared with Astoria Park, which is waterfront and short, Forest Park is inland and long; a full loop can stretch over three miles. Compared with UBS Arena or Citi Field, where pickup timing is pressured by game start, Forest Park lets you dictate the pace. Practical takeaway: for a weekend Forest Park day from Richmond Hill, Woodhaven, or Kew Gardens, a quick pickup at Terp Bros Ozone Park on the way north fits the trip cleanly.
What Budtenders Hear Most About the Forest Park Route to Terp Bros
Ozone Park budtenders field a familiar set of Forest Park questions: what to pick for a long, outdoor afternoon; whether factory-sealed product can travel with you on the trails; and whether our shop really is the closest licensed option for Richmond Hill, Woodhaven, and Kew Gardens residents.
On product choice, they steer Forest Park shoppers toward 2.5 mg to 5 mg edibles, low-dose THC beverages, and sealed pre-rolls. That combination fits the long arc of a hiking or family day without rushing the pace, and it respects the park's smoke-free policy. On venue rules, the answer is consistent: sealed packaging under the 3-ounce flower and 24-gram concentrate personal-possession ceiling travels with you, on-property use is not allowed, and bandshell or festival events can add bag-check screens. On proximity, Terp Bros NYC Ozone Park is the closest CAURD-licensed option for Central and South Queens shoppers heading to the park, operating under NY OCM License OCM-CAURD-23-000020 (Astoria) / OCM-CAURD-25-000294 (Ozone Park). Delivery to Richmond Hill, Woodhaven, and Kew Gardens runs through the cannabis delivery page, and every unit on the shelf is lab-tested under NY OCM standards before it is sold.
