We are! It’s time to plan your fall trip to Cox Farm. We are now taking reservations and getting our Pumpkin Patch ready, building the straw maze and of course taking good care of our animals. Our Pumpkin Patch is an organized field trip which will take an hour to an hour and a half. Tours will start as close as possible to your scheduled time. You can choose the pumpkin patch ***or*** the corn maze*** or you can do ***both.*** Children will get to visit the farm animals, go through a straw maze and take a short walk through the Corn Maze (The Kids Love it) which will end at the Pumpkin Patch where they will choose there favorite pumpkin then take a tractor ride around the farm. If you choose both you will go to corn maze first then to the pumpkin patch. You will need extra time if you do the entire corn maze.
