Are strollers allowed?Yes, strollers are allowed! Please note that some of our paths are gravel, wood chipped or even natural terrain meaning some stroller styles can be a little more difficult to navigate the farm.

Strollers can be left near the field entrance while you walk though the flowers.

What attractions run only on weekends and week nightsDuring the $25 admission, you'll have access to the same attractions as the $17 admission, like the corn maze, train rides, play areas, slides, and jumping pillow. However, the staffed attractions like the spook barn (haunted house), wagon rides, and games such as zombie paintball, apple cannon, and pumpkin slingshot are only available on weekends and weeknights after 5 PM.
