A pumpkin patch, corn maze, games, live performances, and farm-to-table food are just some of the attractions guaranteed to put you in the spirit of fall.
Who's up for a hayride? The farmers are eager to take a break from their arduous work to teach you all about growing food and the history of Dewey.

After traversing the patch on the hayride, you'll be itching to pick a pumpkin of your very own.

Luckily, the sprawling field is just teeming with jack-o-lanterns of all shapes, sizes, and colors, so rest-assured you'll find the perfect fit.
Ten-foot-tall corn stalks form a maze that takes some serious skill to navigate. Two paths, one easy and the other hard, allow visitors to choose their own adventure.

The corn maze isn't scary -- even at night -- so it's an activity suitable for all ages.
Animal lovers will certainly have a blast with activities like mini dog and pig races.

Each one accommodates up to 25 people and comes with a picnic table and treats such as s'mores ingredients, hot dogs, and beer (not included with the cost of reserving a campfire). Time slots are two hours long.
You'll taste the difference of locally-sourced food during your time at the festival.
