2025 Corn Maze

The 2025 corn maze was centered around our love for the fall season! Fall is such a colorful and fun time of the year. The corn was really tall this year. We were lucky with the drought! The corn cobs were impacted from the drought and the corn kernels were not fully formed. The maze was made up of a combination of 18 letters, numbers, and punctuation. The three symbols were an ear of corn, pumpkin, and a leaf.
