Fantozzi Farms 12th Annual Corn Maze and Pumpkin Patch in Patterson provides plenty of family fun for the community and visitors with colossal corn mazes, a variety of pumpkins, and fun-filled activities. 

“Fantozzi Farms offers the community a multitude of fun activities to enjoy in a beautiful fall setting, surrounded by cornstalks and pumpkins,” said Fantozzi Farm Owner Denise Fantozzi. 

The farm will feature two huge mazes this year that reflect a California drought theme, as well as a smaller haunted maze. With a maze that details the farm’s own corn-y rendition of the famous American Gothic painting, guests can challenge themselves to go through approximately 25 acres and over five miles of paths. 

Guests can also take their maze experience one step further with the farm’s Haunted Maze event that takes place at 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. every Friday and Saturday night. Guests will jump at every corner as the maze is filled with creepy crawlers and characters. Those interested in challenging themselves with the haunted attraction are required to bring a flashlight. 

When they are done with the maze, participants can browse from a huge selection of pumpkins and decorative gourds in the courtyard. In addition to pumpkins, the courtyard also hosts a variety of other attractions, including corn cannons, hay rides, and a petting zoo.  

“There is something for everyone,” promised Fantozzi. 

Fantozzi Farms is open from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. on Friday and Saturday and from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Sunday. For more information on ticket prices or activities, call 892-2015 or visit fantozzifarms.com.
