Sherman’s Pumpkin Farm was founded by Dean & Jackie in 1980 (45 years ago). In 2004, they added a corn maze. What started out as a hobby has grown into a family legacy. In 2024, their daughter and son-in-law, Scott & Sarah Hermanson purchased the farm. They are excited to honor the history of the farm and also add some new features.
Each year, a family-friendly theme is designed for the corn maze. Stations are placed in the maze to create a fun adventure for all ages.
We have many play structures for kids to enjoy including a wooden train, firetruck, pirate ship, and a house. Each fall, we look forward to seeing old friends and making new ones!
Take a moment to relax and enjoy the beautiful landscape. Be sure to bring your camera for a picture with our pumpkin family members Gus and Fred. And if you are still a kid at heart – go ahead and jump in the leaf pile!
