For the most part, despite a few rare 70 degree days, the weather has turned crisp and fall has come to New England! I don’t know about you, but fall is my favorite time of year. I love when the weather cools and the leaves change. It’s also the time when the corn stalks grow and the farmers like to keep us entertained with their creative corn mazes.
Over recent years, I’ve seen corn mazes of all shapes and sizes, ones that run during daytime hours as well as evening lamplight strolls. You’ll find mazes fit for kids, and others a bit more spooky. When I enter the corn mazes, I’m worried I won’t be able to make it out! But I sure love to see the creativity behind each corn maze design. I took my kids to Jones Family Farms a few days ago – my 9 year old quickly got us out. But my 4 year old had fun just going in circles to see where the paths led!
