Things To Do
Fun Around the Farm
There’s a reason families have been coming back to Kent’s Cucurbits for over 30 years. From the moment you arrive, there’s something to do, something to see, and a memory waiting to be made. Whether you’re wrangling little ones through a towering corn maze or launching apples into the open Indiana sky, a visit to the farm is a full-day adventure the whole family will be talking about long after fall is over.
The Corn Maze
Get lost — on purpose. Our 3 to 4 acre Indiana corn maze winds through towering stalks, full of twists, turns, and a few surprises along the way. It’s big enough to be a real challenge, but fun enough that nobody minds getting turned around. Watch out for the creatures lurking inside — they make great goals for the little ones to hunt down as they navigate their way through.
Mums
Join us for Mum Weekend the first weekend of September —the biggest and best selection around! Don’t miss out; our premium mums sell out fast every year, so arrive early to secure your favorites.
The Pumpkin Vine Express
Climb aboard! Our beloved barrel train takes riders on a loop around the farm in style. Each car is decked out with its own jack-o’-lantern face, making it one of the most fun (and most photographed) parts of the Kent’s Cucurbits experience. Perfect for little kids and big kids alike — there’s no shame in riding more than once.
The Gourd Runner
Step into the Gourd Runner and take a walk through a tunnel of hanging gourds in every shape and color imaginable. It’s a one-of-a-kind stroll that puts you right in the middle of the harvest, surrounded by the wild, wonderful variety that makes Kent’s Cucurbits unlike anywhere else.
Apple Cannons
Load it up, take aim, and fire. Our apple cannons are a genuine crowd-pleaser — the kind of activity that has kids begging to go again and adults secretly wanting a turn too. There’s nothing quite like the thrill of launching an apple across an open Indiana field.
Feed the Goats
Come meet our herd of playful goats! These curious little characters love visitors and are always up for a snack. Watch them scramble across their wooden spool playground, and bring the kids up close to hand-feed them. It’s a hands-on moment of pure farm life that little ones absolutely love.
Gravity Wagon Basketball
Only at Kent’s Cucurbits will you find basketball hoops mounted on real farm gravity wagons. Step up the ramp, take your shot, and see if you can sink it. It’s a uniquely farm-only experience that brings out the competitive side of every age group.
Sunflower Field
There’s something magical about a field full of sunflowers in bloom. Wander through our sunflower field and cut your own fresh blooms to take home. It’s a beautiful, peaceful moment in the middle of all the fall fun — and makes for a stunning bouquet that’ll brighten up any room.
The Giant Chair
You’ve never sat in a chair quite like this one. Our oversized Kent’s Cucurbits Adirondack chair is the ultimate farm photo op — big enough to fit the whole family, painted in our signature orange and green, and set right against the backdrop of the corn maze. Climb up, squeeze in, and get the shot. It’s become a fall tradition for families year after year.
How Tall Since Last Fall?
Here’s the question that brings families back every year: how much have the kids grown? Step up to our “How Tall Since Last Fall?” measurement chart — flanked by a pair of grinning jack-o’-lantern boards — and find out. It’s a sweet little tradition that turns into one of the most treasured photos from the season.
