The Richardson Adventure Farm designed a maze to celebrate one of Chicago’s most exciting accomplishments last fall: the Cubs winning the World Series.
The 544-acre-family-owned farm claims to create the world’s largest corn maze with the maze taking up nearly 30 acres.
After visitors walk into the farm they can climb the tower overlooking the maze. The maze features a Wrigley Field marquee announcing the team “World Champs”, the Chicago skyline, the Cubs logo, a Cubs pitcher and batter and more.
There are multiple entrances to begin the maze along with several exits. At the entrance there is a Quiz booth where people can grab a Chicago Cubs trivia quiz to use throughout the maze and stop at various checkpoints. If they reach all of them, they will receive a color poster of the maze.
Every year the the theme of the maze changes. Last year the maze celebrated the 50th anniversary of “Star Trek” and in 2015 the maze featured the Blackhawks Stanley Cup win.
Marissa Jezioro, a student at the University of Arizona, said she flew home to visit her family for the weekend and that she is happy she could stop by the maze with her friends this season.
“I’m a big Cubs fan, so I made sure that my friends would come with me to the corn maze this year while I was at home,” Jezioro said. “I came here when the theme was the Blackhawks winning the Stanley Cup so I wanted to be here for this one too.”
The maze is open Wednesday through Friday during the months of September and October.
