Get lost in the 4 acre corn maze. If you enjoy mazes but don't want to invest much time in the corn then our hay maze might be the right stroll for you! When you are finished with the mazes take a leisurely walk through our most sincere pumpkin patch. Our pumpkin patch has been approved by the Great Pumpkin himself. We will have prepicked pumpkins, fresh corn, drinks or other options at the tent depending on seasonal availability. Tractor hay rides on select dates in Oct.
