This year, McDonald’s Greenhouse owner James (“Old”) McDonald cut his corn maze design in the shape of the Three Billy Goats Gruff, a classic childhood nursery rhyme…and at the petting zoo, there will be three (or more like 30 goats)!

This year, Old McDonald added more activities than ever including a grain cart basketball toss and the ‘corny bus.’ There is an expanded play yard area where your children can literally spend hours. If you have not been out to the farm for a couple of years, you will be surprised at how it’s grown!

“What better way to spend a crisp, autumn afternoon, than with your family out in the fresh air?” adds Old McDonald. “In addition to our other activities, we also have a 48×80 barn full of agricultural exhibits ready to host your events out of the weather.

For $8.00 per person (age 2 & under are free), one can defeat the five-acre corn maze, pet baby farm animals, hold a fluffy chick, take a hayride, pedal around the track, jump on the Jumping Pillow and walk through the peaceful Enchanted Forest.

McDonald’s Greenhouse encourages preschoolers, school students, scout groups and church congregations to contact them now to schedule ahead for an enjoyable time and private bonfire.

The corn maze and activities run through October 31, on Saturdays from 10:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m.; Sundays 12:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m.; Weekdays 9:30 – 6:00 p.m. and other times by appointment.

All of September: A grandparent gets free admission with a paying child
