Quick Actions
Tips & Advice
- Purchase tickets online in advance, especially for weekends, as they often sell out and are not available at the admission booth.
- Consider visiting on a weekday morning for a less crowded experience, as fall weekends are the busiest time of year.
- Wear comfortable shoes suitable for walking on grass and gravel, and dress in layers as farm weather can change quickly.
- While the farm store and pumpkin purchasing area do not require tickets, access to the Play Area and Corn Maze does, so plan your visit accordingly.
- Check the farm's website for specific operating hours for food vendors, as many are only available on weekends.
