With Your Family at Maize Quest

There are tons of activities for elementary-age kids at Maize Quest. Over the past 4 years we've added attractions to exercise the minds & muscles of youngsters. Theses attractions include: the NEW Fun Zone, The Straw Bale Maze, Poppie's Corn Box, Poppit's kid-sized Peddle Karts, Gemstone Mining, the Labyrinth, the Bamboo Forest, BoulderDash Pebble Pushers, Indoor Play Maze, and the Giant Maze Mountain Tube Slide are all great for entertaining the 2-8yr crowd.

With a Group at Maize Quest and Maple Lawn Farms

We host thousands of school-age youth each year during our summer and fall harvest seasons. Watch the video below for more information!

During the summer months, we specialize in tours and fun excursions for YMCA & YWCA camps, sports camps, day camps, scout groups, mom's groups, and more. Over 20 attractions are open for our guests including our snack bar and picnic pavilion. Then cool down in the Mist Maze!

Part of our mission at Maple Lawn Farms is to get young kids in touch with their food. Farm tours to our blueberry patch and peach orchards headline summer time education for elementary-age groups. Apple and pumpkin-picking tours take kids on a fall harvest season adventure.

Meet State Academic Standards!

Maize Quest Educational Programs help teachers meet state guidelines. Download our Teacher's Packet, below, for more information. This packet provides some lesson starters for different grade levels based on the state educational guidelines. We took these guidelines and applied them to our attractions. We open our farm to student visitors because we believe there is nothing more important today than an understand of our food system from the source: farms!
