Corn Maze 2018

Fall in New Hampshire is filled with pumpkins, apple picking, foliage drives, haunted houses and maybe even the occasional cider donut from your local farm store. It’s also the time of year to visit a corn maze, so we have rounded up a few of our favorites. Many of the farms listed also offer additional family activities like farm animals, “night mazes” and more. Visit the individual maze websites for times and rates.

Fun corn maze and corn facts:

  • Many farms don’t harvest the corn they grow for corn mazes. Instead it’s used as a feed corn for cows and other farm animals.
  • Corn maze stalks can grow up to 15 feet tall.
  • Depending on the farm, some corn mazes take about a month to map and carve out.
  • The largest corn maze in the world is located in Dixon, California. This maze is 45 acres in area.
  • The average ear of corn has 800 kernels in 16 rows.
  • Corn is America’s number one field crop.
