10 Atlanta Area Hayrides and Corn Mazes for Fall 2011

If you’ve noticed, fall is in the air. The wind has picked up a bit, the leaves are turning colors, and it’s cooler at night. Even though the weather is changing and the normal summer activities are coming to an end, there is no reason to stay at home.

With the fall comes Halloween costume parties, fall festivals, and hayrides. What better way to celebrate than to go play at a pumpkin patch?

Here are a few places in the Atlanta area to take the kids for pumpkin picking, hayrides, and a journey around a corn maze. They all feature pumpkins already picked, picnic areas, restrooms and fresh produce. The basics are included for your convenience.
