We’ve got Farm Animals!
Visit our animal barn full of fun and cute critters.  Free and open during our daytime hours.  We have bunnies, chickens, turkeys and goats.  Hand washing stations are available at the barn as well.

And a Cornfield Maze!
Getting lost is half the fun in our maze!  Open Wed-Fri 3-6 PM (ticket sales end at 5:30 pm), Sat & Sun 10 AM-6 PM (ticket sales end at 5:30 pm). A series of trails cut into a large field of corn in a maze pattern for you to solve. The maze has several large bridges to cross to enjoy a panoramic view of the field and farm. The maze usually takes about 45 minutes to complete. You’ll find numerous activities and landmarks to help you in your journey.  Find out more …

Night corn maze – Enjoy the maze from a different perspective as you navigate your way through miles of cornstalks with a flashlight. No intentional scares in the nighttime venue.  Find out more …

Take a Hayride!
A scenic, slow paced ride around our PumpkinPatch.   The hayride runs every 15 minutes from 10-6 PM (weather permitting) on Saturdays and Sundays in October. On a clear day, Mt Rainier will oversee your ride and pumpkin patch adventure.   Please note: Hay rides may be canceled without notice in the event of inclement weather or very slow crowd conditions.

Jump Around on our Pillows!
This super-sized, air-filled rubberized jumping pillow is tons of fun, safe, and has no hard surfaces to land on.  It is an “all age” product and equally suitable to all shapes and sizes. It can also be a great opportunity to burn those extra calories you’ve added from eating roasted corn or tire those kids out before the long drive home.

Peddle Cart Track/Races– Weekends 10 AM-6 PM. New to the farm in 2010, there is a track with peddle carts available for children as well as another available for adults. For children up to 100 pounds and adults between 100 and 250 pounds.  Check it out…

Enjoy Pony Rides on the Weekend!
Yep, it’s a weekend family favorite!  Our little ponies will take your little tykes for a walk under our under a covered area. Our ponies will carry children up to 100 pounds.
This is a wonderful photo/video opportunity for parents and grandparents, capturing the youngsters glee!
Send us your favorite video clips to post online!
