🎃☀️ Welcome to Summerween: Fall Kickoff Weekend at Alstede Farms!

Summer isn’t quite over, but fall is already creeping onto the farm! Join us for Summerween: Fall Kickoff Weekend, a playful celebration where the final days of summer meet the first signs of our favorite fall season.

Spend the day harvesting your own fresh vegetables, wandering through towering sunflowers, enjoying scenic hay wagon rides, listening to live entertainment, and getting an early taste of fall at Alstede Farms.

And for the first time this season…

🌽 The Corn Maze Is OPEN!

That’s right—Summerween marks the official opening of our Corn Maze for the fall season!

Be among the first guests of the year to navigate the twists and turns of our newest maze. It’s your sneak peek at fall before apple and pumpkin season gets into full swing.

Combine that with Pick Your Own vegetables, sunflowers, farm attractions, seasonal food, and a few early touches of autumn for the perfect transition from summer into fall.

🌻 Blooming Giants Sunflower Trail Included with Admission!

Summerween gives you the best of both seasons! While we’re starting to celebrate fall, our spectacular Blooming Giants Sunflower Trail is still bringing plenty of summer color to the farm.

Every Pick Your Own Entry Ticket includes access to the trail.

Stroll among thousands of towering sunflowers, capture beautiful photos, and enjoy one last burst of summertime on the farm before the fall harvest takes center stage.
