For your convenience, food and merchandise vendors will be on site Friday through Sunday, while Exploration Acres is open.

Visit in September and October to explore the 23-acre corn maze with over 10 miles of twists and turns, take a hayride, fire the corn cannon and dive into a mound of straw. Pick pumpkins straight from the vine, rent a fire pit and enjoy a variety of other family-friendly fall activities. Fun for the entire family. See website for exact days and times.
