🌽 It's corn! Fun to eat, but also to get lost in. See our guide to local corn maze, (including one right in #nyc at @queensfarm )

🌽 @outhouse_orchards is #westchester is one of our favorite farms. The maze is is in a Frankenstein shape with fun facts throughout. As at many of the maze spots, also find apple picking, hay rides, doughnuts and more fall fun.

🌽 Remember to always use the bathroom before you enter the maze (and not just at farms named after them) and remind kids this corn is not to be eaten - learned both of those the hard way…

🌽 What’s your favorite corn maze?
