Field Trip Guidelines
Thank you for choosing our maze and farm for your school trip! We’re excited to have you join us for a fun day of exploration. Below are some helpful guidelines for your visit:
- Tricycles: These are best suited for children in grade 2 and under. Please ensure kids use a tricycle that’s the right size for them and take turns, as we have a limited number. You may opt not to offer this activity if you’d prefer.
- Please have everyone bring a water bottle!
- We have a store with items from $.25 and up if the school allows kids to go to the store.
- Corn Maze: The large maze takes about 45 minutes, but we recommend planning for an hour. The small maze takes around 10–15 minutes. Group leaders should take a photo of the maze map at the entrance.
- All children must be chaperoned.
- No cutting through the corn, please.
- Tented Area: If multiple schools are visiting on the same day, you’ll be assigned either the white or black tent, or specific tables in the white tent. Before leaving, please tidy up by picking up trash and wiping down tables with the provided wipes.
- Ice Cream: If your trip package includes ice cream, children can choose between vanilla or chocolate, with either rainbow or chocolate sprinkles. Groups can take turns visiting the ice cream window, and we encourage kids to practice ordering. A teacher should assist each group. For students with allergies, we offer alternatives like pumpkins or sorbet for those with lactose intolerance.
- Pumpkins: If your package includes school-sized pumpkins, we have plastic bags and markers available to help transport them. Just ask for these at the maze store.
- School Pumpkin Location: The school pumpkins are located in the pumpkin patch just below the play area, in the last two rows at the southern end of the field. It’s easiest to walk between the pumpkin patch and the corn cannon target area to reach them. The pumpkins are roughly the size of a large pie pumpkin.
- Play Areas: Please tidy up any play areas you use, including the wiffle ball, badminton, and corn hole areas.
- Extra Clothes: It’s often windy at the maze and colder later in the season, please have kids come with appropriate clothing. “Accidents” sometimes happen at the maze with younger kids with all the excitement, so please bring at least 1 pair of bottoms/pants incase a child in your group has an accident.
- Broken Items: If you notice any broken equipment during your visit, please notify a staff member so we can address it. Thank you for helping us keep the farm in great shape!
