About
Autumn is in the air around the farm!
The corn maze is ready for those who want to try their skills at finding their way out, don't be afraid to get lost in our 3 acre corn maze! Take on the maze as many times as you'd like during your visit. The Wagon Ride will be running throughout your visit. There is a designated area where the wagon loads up and heads out into the woods for a 15 min ride through the ever changing maples. Have fun spotting all the silly scarecrows along the way. The first wagon ride is at 10:00am and the last ride of the day is at 3:00pm. At the farm, we have lots of friendly animals to see, feed and touch. The kid's barn has some imaginary play areas along with the famous corn sensory table. The table top activities change weekly relating to the theme of the week. Matilda's Pioneer Play Kitchen is always a hit, the kids love cooking up a storm in there, we have sampled many rock muffins and imaginary pies from our little guests. During your visit you will find some fun hay play structures to climb and explore around the farm. Make sure to take a walk in the Enchanted Forest, a new and fun adventure on the farm. A short walk in the woods where you will find fairy tales frozen in time. Read the short stories under the canopy of the magical forest.
Your welcome bring in some snacks, or purchase snacks at the farm and enjoy the picnic and play area.
As soon as the pumpkins are ready, usually early October, we invite you into the pumpkin patch to search for your perfect pumpkin. Or pick some out from the pre-picked pumpkin piles. We have wagons that you are welcome to use to take your pumpkins from the patch to your car.
The Log farm is part of Ottawa’s history, the farm was originally settled in 1854. You can walk through the original home of the Bradley’s and take in how they lived right here over 150 years ago!!

The entire experience is outside, so be sure to dress and prepare for the weather! We hope you and your family make memories that will last while you explore and play down on the farm this fall.
