Crop Mazes in the Faribault Area

Fall is here, and when not working, people are crossing things off of their annual fall to do lists. I create one each year, and it's always a bit lofty, so I am happy if I accomplish about half. If you are like a lot of people, exploring a corn maze might be on your list of fun fall activities. Here are some within 50 miles of Faribault.

The website Minnesota Grown is run by the Minnesota Department of Agriculture and they have a handy feature where you can search crop mazes by proximity to your town. You can also search farmers markets, petting zoos, wine making, yarn, and apple cider, plus so much more, which makes it a really cool feature.
