Farm fun



Cherry Crest Adventure Farm in Ronks, PA offers a fun-filled day that is just a little over an hour drive away.
You can take the Corn Maze Challenge: Find your way through their corn maze, following the instructions of their helpful staff and clues scattered throughout the maze. The average time to complete the maze is one hour, but if you have trouble, thereĀ¹s plenty of help stationed along the way.
You can also play in the Courtyard which features the Cherry Crest Express, a short wagon ride through the cornfield, a 20 minute farm wagon tour, pedal kart races, a goat walk, a farm animal center, a baby chick hatchery, logic
mazes, a farm Ed Center, food vendors, a fudge shop, a gift shop and more!
The Barnyard features a singing chicken show, an obstacle course, a giant hay chute slide, a hay tunnel, a hay jump, a barnyard jump, a pumpkin slinger and a Lil' farmers playland.
Admission is $13.95 for Adults 12+, $11.95 for Children 3-11, and 2 and under are free (Admission includes all 25 farm fun activities, plus the Amazing Maize Maze).
If you are unable to participate in the corn maze, but would like to enjoy the rest of the activities the admission is $10.95 for 3 years old and up. They have several special events throughout the season and flashlight mazes some evenings. They are closed on Sundays. Their schedule and full information can be found on their website at www.cherrycrestfarm.com or by calling 717-687-6843 or toll-free 1-866-546-1799.
They are located at 150 Cherry Hill Road, Ronks, PA, and if time permits they are just a short drive from the Strasburg Railroad where you can enjoy a ride on the train or a walk through the Railroad Museum.
It gets hot in the tall cornstalks so I usually wait until the temperatures aren't quite so high. If you like a challenge, it's lots of fun.
