The Pumpkin Patch will be filled with thousands of pumpkins. Field Trips include a visit to the large patch where you can select a small to large-sized pumpkin or the smaller-sized Kid's Patch, perfect for the younger ones. Additional pumpkins will be available for purchase, including specialty and jumbo sized.
Big Corn Maze - (allow 20 minutes)
The Corn Maze is full of twisting paths designed to confuse and confound, but be assured - there is a way out! (difficulty level: challenging)
Petting Farm - (allow 30 minutes)
Children love learning about our friendly farm animals which include sheep, several breeds of goats, and other farm friends. Learn what they eat, their unusual teeth, and other ways animals are unique from people. Students will also learn how cloth is created from wool, including dyeing with natural colors.
Hay Wagon Ride & Farm Tour - (allow 20 minutes)
Climb aboard the antique tractor-pulled wagon ride for a tour of the Discovery Farm at AGRIscapes and it’s a great place for a group photo op!
Farm Kids Country Farm- (allow 20 minutes)
Includes a Mini Corn Maze and other fun fall activities.
Children’s Garden - (allow 20 minutes)
The Children's Garden is a fun place to learn about how our food grows. It includes a Healthy Eats nutrition program, the crazy world of Good and Bad Bugs, and a gooey Pumpkin Dissection all in a Fall setting. Students will also plant a seed in a cup to take home.
