Friday & Saturday nights! You might be fortunate enough to stumble onto the correct pathway, conquering the corn in less than 30 minutes. Or you might find yourself a bit directionally challenged and take a couple of hours to make your way through the corn puzzle. Regardless, you’ll have a super time in one of the area’s largest mazes with 2.5 miles of paths and two scenic bridges hidden within! This season make your way through the corn maze using our new and exciting game “The Farm Scene Investigation”. It’s like the game of clue! Farmer Joe is missing. There has been an accident and it appears to be foul play. There are seven farm animal suspects that we need you to investigate. Throughout the corn maze you will find clues to help us solve the mystery. Help us put the guilty farm animals behind bars and save Farmer Joe! Fall is perfect for pumpkin picking! pumpkin carving tips Before carving your pumpkin, soak it in a bucket of water (with two tablespoons of bleach added) for 10 about minutes. The best carving tools include a sharp knife, a small serrated knife, a metal spoon and a thumbtack. Make the pumpkin level on the bottom with a serrated knife. If you want to put a candle in your carved pumpkin, you may want to carve a hole in the bottom and sit the pumpin over the candle. After opening the top, scoop out the seeds with a metal spoon. Use a sawing motion when cutting the pumpkin; this is safer than straight cutting, and much more effective when cutting small details. If you are creating an elaborate design, draw it first on paper. Tape the design to the pumpkin and punch holes along the design with a thumbtack. This method avoids visible lines after the pumpkin has been carved. To preserve your pumpkin and prevent wrinkling around the cut areas, rub petroleum jelly along the carvings. Take a free hayride (weather permitting) to the fields where our pumpkins are growing! There’s no admission charge to pick your own pumpkins. Pumpkins are sold by the pound, and you pay for what you pick! About our Pumpkins … We grow pumpkins in all shapes and sizes.
