2010 Private Parties and Tours

We are open weekends starting September 17, Fridays 4 to 10 pm, Saturdays noon-10 pm, and Sundays noon-7 pm.  Private parties or tours can be scheduled during these times, plus Saturday morning and Sunday evening.  Have a leisurely day enjoying hayrides, hiking, and pumpkin picking.  Enjoy a J B hot dog roast and other light refreshments in our picnic area.  Find the correct path through the trails in the corn maze and complete the game card.  We have a great selection of all sizes of pumpkins.  Also, we have a new line of gifts and crafts, plus hard-shell gourds, lovely broom corn, cornstalks, Indian corn, and popcorn.  The children can visit with our friendly reindeer and enjoy our free play area, which includes a double hay pyramid with tunnels, hay maze, antler ring toss, and more.
