It's that time of year again: the leaves are changing, there's a crisp breeze in the air, and everything just feels a bit more magical. Amplify the magic even further by taking the family to Vertuccio Farms, which features a fall festival that boasts over a dozen attractions for all ages. From a sprawling pumpkin patch to a five-acre corn maze to a petting zoo and so much more, this annual event will make this fall one to remember.
Nestled on 40 sprawling acres of land in Chandler, Vertuccio Farms is a family-owned and operated destination for year-round fun.
Special events are offered in all four seasons, so the farm is always worth visiting.
Fall is among the most magical times of year on the farm, as it marks the arrival of the annual “Cooler Days In The Corn Maze” festival.
The festival boasts over a dozen attractions for all ages, including a pumpkin patch and - as the name suggests - Arizona's longest-running corn maze.
The maze spans five acres and is full of head-scratching twists and turns sure to keep you on your toes.
It isn't scary at all, so kids and adults alike can take on the challenge.
Plenty of the activities are designed just for the little ones, including the barrel train, jumping pillow, and tube slide.
Still more attractions are fit for the whole family, such as pumpkin bowling, miniature golf, corn hole, themed food and drinks, and festive photo ops.
Brand new this year, Carter Farms is bringing their mobile petting zoo to the farm.
You'll get the unique opportunity to interact with all sorts of adorable farm animals, and pony rides will also be available (with a 100-pound weight limit).
Address: 4011 South Power Road, Mesa, AZ 85212.
Festival hours:
Monday-Thursday: 3 p.m. to 9 p.m.
Friday & Saturday: 9 a.m. to 10 p.m.
Sunday: 12 p.m. to 7 p.m.
Admission is $12 per person for everyone two and older (kids under two get in free.) Visit the farm's website or Facebook page to learn more and/or purchase tickets.
