Golf in North Baltimore

North Baltimore is a Wood County community in the flat agricultural plain of northwestern Ohio, where the county's former Black Swamp landscape has been drained and converted to some of the state's most fertile cropland. Birch Run Golf Club reflects the community's practical, agricultural character—a course named for the natural drainage feature that represents the managed hydrology of a landscape where water control has always been central to productive use of the land. Wood County's agricultural communities like North Baltimore maintain recreational golf as an important community institution, where the course serves as both a recreational option and a social gathering point for the county's farming and small-business population.
