2010 Corn Maze Adventure Fort Hill Farms

The 2010 Corn Maze Adventure is now history at Fort Hill Farms but what a great season it was!

Each year our farm hosts our annual Corn Maze Adventure which is not like any corn maze you've ever been in! Every year we create an "agricultural adventure" on our farm and 2010 was no different. This year we celebrated our new creamery and the debut of The Farmer's Cow ice cream and named our maze “The Farmer's Cow-Lick.” Additionally, the maze offered learning opportunities about the history of ice cream.

The design was a cow licking a cone filled with The Farmer's Cow ice cream. As you got your exercise, you also learned about our ice cream through various stations along the route.

When entering the maze visitors were given a 4-page game sheet, and they walked the paths looking for clues about the history of ice cream and learning interesting facts. In the maze, they will encountered 30 desks, which had the answers they needed for the game sheet. By working together they could solve the Maize Quest Challenge!

Sound fun? Check back next year for the 2011 Maize Quest challenge, it promises to be another adventure.
