We went to Flat Acres Farms in Parker, CO to enjoy some Fall Festivities like the corn maze, pumpkin patch, and the hay ride. BUT, we got a lot more than what we thought we would when we arrived!
Of course we took our annual corn maze photos … for what it’s worth. Lovely having cooperative children, isn’t it…
There was a petting zoo, a couple of jump houses for the kids, a duck race…
We REALLY enjoyed the Pumpkin Shoot! They have these great ‘potato guns’ that shoot tennis balls! Pumpkin cut outs are the targets! SOOOOOO FUN!
There are 3 corn mazes at this farm! One is the regular family friendly corn maze. Then there are 2 ‘haunted’ corn mazes. Okay, this is cool … Mike, the owner, lets the Boy Scouts set this one pictured below up and they fundraise with proceeds from this maze! The other haunted corn maze is designed by a PROFESSIONAL ‘haunted maze/house’ man. I didn’t know there was such a profession, but it’s obvious now that I’ve seen it! How cool is this place and it is right near us!
This is something we haven’t seen before, a maze for little people! What a great idea. This place was so family friendly!
I loved the day and loved this view from the edge of the corn maze
Of course, going to the pumpkin patch wouldn’t be complete if we didn’t get a family photo…
I hope you have a chance to go to Flat Acres Farms if you’re in the area. It was super convenient and a lot of fun. Oh, and I didn’t cover ALL of the action at this place! You’ll certainly spend an afternoon or morning there for sure.
There is a HUGE corn maze that is friendly for the WHOLE family daily til 6pm.
Then there’s “Ears of Fear”
