"Many a trip continues long after movement in time and space have ceased." -John Steinbeck
Enjoy old-time country fun as you help bring in this year's crop of corn. Wander through a 5-acre field searching for ears of Indian corn and popcorn, and take home a portion of what you harvest. Outside the field, enjoy magic shows, cider pressing, old-time music and historic crafts. Ride a narrow gauge train, visit the pumpkin patch and learn what late nineteenth century life was like on a tour of the beautifully restored farmhouse. Please bring your own bags to take home your harvest.
