A hay ride through the orchard gives Country Apple Orchard’s Fall Festival its setting, but the attractions reach beyond the trees. Visitors can choose between a corn maze and a giant hay-bale maze, meet animals at the Funny Farm Petting Zoo, or head for the jumping pillows and zip-line course.
The two mazes offer different farm-themed choices alongside the orchard hay ride. For visitors looking for more active attractions, the festival lists two jumping pillows, each 90 by 33 feet, a 150-foot zip-line course and the 120-foot POET Corn Pit.
The Funny Farm Petting Zoo and kiddie train rides are also on the attraction list. Other choices include rubber duck races, MegaChess and giant ring toss, so a visit need not revolve around the larger play structures. Attraction-specific age, height and access requirements are not listed; families who need those details can call the event contact before buying tickets.
