This farm has been in operation since 1826. Now 5 generations later Ben Pierce and his family work the 226-acre farm. They have cows for beef, eggs, an orchard, a pumpkin patch, and garden-fresh produce. Entry for fall farm days is $9 per person and includes a hayride, the corn maze, and a pumpkin from the patch.  The day we went was a special event and it was $10 per person, and they had a man carving wood with a chainsaw, a corn bin, temp tattoos, foam pumpkin deco kits, and yard games.
