Visitors can compete in a corn shucking contest, participate in a barn dance, learn how to make a corn-husk doll, and play games like Konk a Crow, Cornhole, and Ring-a-Cob in the CORNival gaming area.
In addition to making their own one-of-a-kind scarecrows, visitors can watch as artists create fanciful scarecrows for display at The Great Jack O’Lantern Blaze® this fall. Children will be invited to make original scarecrow accessories, which will be exhibited on a rotating basis during the run of Blaze.
Live bluegrass and folk music by the Tappan Cowboys will be heard throughout the day.
Other activities include cooking demos by local chef Renee Kashuba and demonstrations of hand-dipped candle making. Kids can traverse a kid-sized “mini maize maze,” and all visitors can tour the site’s 18th-century manor house and grist mill.
