Counting down the days to pumpkin season? Then, you have to pay a visit to Downey’s Farm Pumpkin Fest this September and feast your eyes on their famous orange sea of gourds.
Thousands of pumpkins are on display at this charming family farm in Caledon, just 45 minutes outside of downtown Toronto.
The annual fair is full of fall-themed activities and photo ops on the pumpkin-filled lawn.
Among the highlights are the incredible 8-acre corn maze, farm animals, live entertainment, and the “boo barn,” plus fun games like straw jumping, duck races, jumping pillows, the pedal cart track, and goat mountain slide.
The corn maze is a scavenger hunt like no other. It has three levels and 8 km of trails in total — so be prepared for an adventure as you solve clues and get lost with your pals.
There’s also a play area, puppet shows, and inflatables for kids.
