What's New in 2007
- Farm Animal Corral — Annie & Mary kind of showed up one day. Tom found them after he noticed half the Maze had been eaten. Put 'em in the corral with the goats. Been there ever since.
The Farm Animal Corral allows children to observe our miniature donkey's and our goats in a natural pasture setting. Built with a double row of fencing, it's designed to keep little animal muzzles in and children's little fingers out, helping to insure the safety of our customers and the good health of our animals. Although they mostly only try to bite Tom.
And of course all of your favorites from years past!
- Tom's Punkin' Chunkin' Cannon — Tom's gone completely off the farm this year! This punkin' chunkin' cannon is an air powered cannon with a 25 ft. long barrel that shoots pumpkins over a quarter of a mile (which depending on the direction…is OFF THE FARM!) The cannon is mounted on a vintage 1968 Ford Fire truck. Be sure to bring your camera, it is really something to see!
- No Left Turn Maze — This is a straw bale maze for all ages. Your challenge is to enter the straw bale maze and walk to the exit without ever turning left. If you make a left turn , you MUST start back over again. It is harder than it looks!
- Photo Opportunities — Be sure to bring your camera. we have more photo opportunities with handmade scarecrows and cutout picture boards.
- Bolga Baskets — Bolga baskets are hand-woven in the historical town of Bolgatonga, Ghana in West Africa. The weavers are mostly farmers who supplement their income by making and selling baskets. These beautiful baskets make great gifts.
- Sunflower Labyrinth A relaxing 5-10 minute walk on one continuous path into the center of the labyrinth and back. Great for younger kids!
- Kiddie Straw Bale Maze Fun for our youngest maze explorers!
- Specialty Pumpkins at our Farm Market! More new varieties (white, green, striped, giant jack-o-lantern types and minis) ornamentals, gourds, crafts and more. Over fifty varieties of pumpkins and squash for you to choose.
