The Boyd Conservation Area is a land preserve owned and operated by the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority.

It is a moderate-size park that offers facilities for numerous outdoor activities. The park is situated in the Humber River valley, in Woodbridge, Ontario. Public operations run between late April and early October, and are funded in part by nominal fees to access the park. Optionally, individuals or families may acquire a membership, which provides access to a number of parks operated by the Conservation Authority.

In the summer, it is a popular destination for local residents to enjoy a picnic; businesses may also reserve one of 19 sites in the park for corporate picnics, including a few which have sheltered areas. Bocce courts, volleyball and basketball courts, and children's playgrounds are found within the park for the benefit of families and youth groups.

Bird watching and nature hiking are very popular in Boyd Conservation Area.
