Canada’s first forest-themed pumpkin patch is coming to BC

Now that it’s almost officially fall, we’re gearing up for some exciting ‘fall at the farm’ experiences across the Lower Mainland. As many fall enthusiasts know, Abbotsford happens to be a hotspot for tons of quintessential fall activities, from pumpkin patches to corn mazes. And Maan Farms has announced an exciting season ahead.

This year’s highlight? The first-ever forest-themed pumpkin patch in Canada.

Attractions

As for the full ‘fall at the farm’ experience, visitors can look forward to playing a themed trivia game at the day-time corn maze, ziplining at Barnyard Adventureland, going on giant slides and a jumping pillow, and feeding baby goats and alpacas.

Speaking of goats, the farm’s popular Goat Yoga Sessions will continue with a “fall twist” throughout September and October, according to farm representatives.

And if you’d rather take the ‘spooky’ route, there’s always the Scariest Corn Maze in Canada ($50-$65 per person) – AKA ‘The Slaughterhouse’ – an immersive labyrinth filled with hidden horrors.

Guests who want a good scare can also check out two other immersive haunts that allow them to interact with a “multisensory hellscape” and “full touch” haunt. Oh, and a sip from your ‘blood bag’ filled with berry wine definitely completes the experience.
