Five-Acre Corn Mazes Open Saturday Morning
Spring Hill, FL · September 25, 2026
A refreshing dip into the sixties greets the morning, just in time for the high school homecoming parade to cue up the brass section downtown. Friday has arrived, and the weekend lineup is stacked.
The Lead
Autumn agritourism officially begins this weekend as HarvestMoon Fun Farm in Masaryktown opens the gates for its fall season on Saturday morning. The centerpiece remains the five-acre corn maze, designed with winding paths for seasoned navigators alongside a separate kiddie maze for toddlers. Beyond the stalks, opening weekend features a 70-foot jumping pillow, duck races, a pumpkin patch, and the inaugural run of the candy cannon, which launches treats into the air several times daily. For adults, the on-site Silo Bar pours regional ciders, craft beer, and wine throughout the afternoon. Because entry capacities are capped during peak hours, reserving daytime tickets online before heading down County Line Road is the safest bet to avoid turnarounds at the farm gate.
