History

Farmington was laid out in 1839. It was named after Farmington, Connecticut. The town was incorporated on January 11, 1841.

Farmington has suffered from several major floods of the Des Moines River, most notably in 1993, when a “500-year-flood” caused major damage to the buildings near the river, including a one-block area bordered by Walnut, Second, and Third Streets. The houses in this block were subsequently razed, and the property was purchased by the City of Farmington to create “Wild Rose City Park.”
