Wisconsin Corn Mazes 2025 Guide

Wisconsin’s Fall Festive scene is set to shine in 2025 with a fresh lineup of immersive corn maze experiences. As fall approaches, here’s your comprehensive guide to exploring the fun – and navigating the stalks wild!

🌽 1. NFL Draft‑Themed Corn Mazes

In celebration of the 2025 Green Bay NFL Draft, several Wisconsin farms are hosting gridiron‑inspired mazes engraved with draft logos:

• Petals & Plows (Ripon) – Opens Sept. 7 with its signature “DRAFT 2025 GREEN BAY” maze on an 18‑acre plot; features pumpkins, squash, barnyard fun, playgrounds and special community events.
• Polly’s Pumpkin Patch (Chilton) – Debuts Sept. 13 on a sprawling 15‑ to 17‑acre maze celebrating “DRAFT Pick is Polly’s,” combined with sunflowers, fresh food, and family‑friendly zones.
• Porter’s Patch (Bonduel) – Opens around Sept. 20; maze includes 32 scarecrow “players” scattered throughout – great for little wanderers.
• Feltz’s Dairy Store (Portage County) – Launches Sept. 21; enjoy the maze plus petting zoo, playground, and a jumping pillow.
  
  

These events spotlight Wisconsin’s agricultural heritage while building hype for the NFL Draft – and experts like those at Feltz’s and MazePlay have collaborated with farms and the Packers to bring these massive designs to life.

2. Classic & Award‑Winning Mazes

Beyond the draft-themed attractions, Wisconsin is home to some perennial favorites worth visiting:

• Treinen Farm (Lodi) – A USA Today–recognized maze featuring intricate themes designed in‑house. Their 2024 maze displayed an axolotl, and 2025 promises another elaborate concept.
• Hidden Trails Corn Maze (West Salem) – One of the oldest and largest in the state with over 5 miles of paths in a 12‑acre labyrinth, plus farm animals and wagon rides.
• Skelly’s Farm Market (Oconomowoc area) – Presenting two distinct mazes – an “Everglades Mystery” adventure and an “Impossible Maze.” Visitors tackle escape‑room style puzzles and entertaining games built right into the stalks.
• Red Barn Corn Maze (Forestville) – A 9‑acre maze with a “Farm Scene Investigation” theme and seasonal attractions like pumpkin picking and apple slingshots.
  
  

🗓️ 3. Planning Tips for 2025 Visits

• Opening Dates – Most mazes begin in early to mid‑September, conveniently overlapping with autumn activities like pumpkin patches and hayrides.
• Popular Timing – Weekends fill up quickly, especially during draft-themed events. Arrive early in the season or medium‑through the day on weekdays to avoid crowds.
• Amazing Designs – These labyrinths are designed using GPS tech and mower precision – best appreciated from above but fun to tackle on foot.
• Family Friendliness – From hidden checkpoints (Porter’s 32 scarecrows!) to puzzle stops (Skelly’s), the mazes cater to a variety of ages and engagement levels.
• Multiday Fun – Many farms pair their corn maze with playgrounds, petting zoos, food trucks, scare events, and more – for a full autumn outing.
