Before you go

  • Check that it is open. Search for the farm's current hours: hours and crops change with the weather.
  • Bring cash and a card. Some farms take only one.
  • Water, sun protection and closed-toe shoes.
  • Shoes you do not mind getting dusty
  • A charged phone and a meeting spot for the group
  • A flashlight if you go near dusk
  • Ask about pets before you bring a dog.

How to pick like a pro

  • Is it ripe?

    Mazes are usually best from mid September through October, when the corn is tallest.

  • How to pick

    Pick a meeting spot before you enter, keep the group together and take a photo of the map if they hand one out.

  • Best time to go

    Weekday evenings or early weekend mornings. Many mazes run flashlight nights in late October.
