FALL FUN

Even though September has only begun, a lot of local farms are already posting about their fall activities.  Click on the name of each farm to go to their website and check out the details.

• Weber's Farm's Johnny Appleseed Birthday Celebration:  September 22-23

Located in Parkville.  General Admission ticket includes: 1 hayride and all day admission to the barnyard activity area.  Also, a good chance you could meet Johnny Appleseed!  Live bluegrass band from 12-4.

• Perry Hall Apple Festival at Chapel Hills Farm:  September 22-23, 10am-5pm

Free admission.  Craft vendors will be on site for the festival, as well as chainsaw sculptures, apple bobbing, petting zoo, hay rides, pie eating contests (prior registration required), and sack races.

 

• Brad's Produce: September 15-October 31, Escape from Alcatraz Corn Maze

Located in Churchville.  Brad's Produce provides Maize-O-Vision, secret decoders that help you navigate through the puzzle. There are also special activities designed for younger "Questers," including a straw maze.

 

•  Cherry Crest Adventure Farm:  Thursdays-Saturdays, September 22-November 3

This farm is in Strasburg, PA, which is a little farther than the other farms, and the admission is a little more ($15-$18 a person).  But I heard such good things about this place that I had to include it. 

 

The website advertises "5+ hours of family fun."  Activities include an obstacle course, a mini hay bale maze for kids, potato sack slide, mini train ride, rope climbs, pedal car track, giant moon bounce, even an animatronic singing chicken show. 

 

Plus check out this corn maze:

 

•  Hubers Farm:  September 28-October 27

Located in Kingsville.  Hubers' Children Activity Center opens the end of September.  Attractions include: a Spooky Fun  House, a Bouncy Castle, a Scarecrow Making Center, and a Kid's Tractor.

 

Anyway, these are just a few places I heard about and thought would be a nice way to get into the fall spirit with the kids.  Hopefully, the temperatures will cooperate! :)
