Green Acres Farm

What it is: Green Acres Farm belongs to the Ferrell family and is open to the public during the fall and winters seasons. The fall festivities include: a pumpkin patch, corn maze, hay rides, pony rides, bounce house, tractors, fire trucks, and more. Additionally, during October you can visit
the corn maze at night! Flashlights are recommended!

What we liked: Very short drive for those living in Durham! Once there, it is easy to park and the cost is great (based on the activities in which you participate). They do accept cash and credit cards. Everything is within walking distance, yet it does not feel crowded because there is something to do or see everywhere you look. Plus, close enough to the airport that your children will enjoy watching the planes pass overhead at just the right distance. Food available and plenty of bathrooms made it
an easy (and fun) weekend trip for our family.

What we would change: Be prepared for it to be a farm...in other words strollers and wagons can be a bit challenging. It is probably best for walkers and/or those wearing carriers. Otherwise, it's a family friendly place to be on the weekend!
