Bring the family out to enjoy three weekends of fall harvest fun at Lake Metroparks Farmpark every weekend in October through October 19. These weekends will provide visitors opportunities to enjoy the many family-friendly hands-on activities that are part of Farmpark’s harvest traditions. 

Top off our fall harvest experience with two weekends of corn and pumpkins October 7 & 8 and 14 & 15. Help husk, shell and grind corn. Take home your own handmade corn husk doll and play a little corn hole and corn darts. Sample our fall harvest stew made with Farmpark’s own potatoes, help crank up some pumpkin ice cream and learn how to plow behind Farmpark’s draft horses. Kids can paint a pumpkin and take it home (additional fee applies). 

If you enjoy a challenge, then Farmpark's corn maze is for you. Follow winding paths that steer you to intersections where you must decide which way to go. Show off your skills as you make your way through multiple twists and turns in the three-acre maze. 

Visitors may also enjoy our Showman’s Circle area, including a farm-themed playground and covered shelter for live animal demonstrations. 

At Farmpark’s Fall Harvest Weekends, visitors can participate in many traditional harvest activities. Each weekend will also have a different focus on some aspect of farming and harvest. 

Regular Farmpark admission and membership apply to Fall Harvest Weekends. Children younger than 2 and Farmpark members are Free. 

Lake Metroparks Farmpark is located at 8800 Euclid Chardon Road in Kirtland, Ohio (44094).
