Now, let’s get comfortable. Fall’s usual sartorial favorites—thick sweaters, inviting jackets and vests and durable accessories—are here in rich tints (and, at times, unexpected patterns) to set a casual, off-the-clock mood. We’re breathing easy.
4 WAYS TO UNWIND AT CHATFIELD FARMS
CORN MAZE
SEPT. 20–OCT. 27, FRIDAY-SUNDAYS
Navigate your way through this annual seven-acre puzzle in daylight … (Parents, kids under the age of 10 can explore the corn mini-maze, too.)
AFTER DARK CORN MAZE
OCT. 4-27, VARIOUS DATES
… or get daring and find your way out by the glimmer of just a glow stick.
DEAD ZONE SCREAM PARK
OCT. 4-27, VARIOUS DATES
For Halloween, things get eerie at the metro area’s largest haunted park with the Corn Stalkers Haunted Maze (home of “The Krow” spirit), After Dark Maze and Fear Flicks (note: hay bale seats do not come with pillows prepared to shield your eyes during horror showings).
PUMPKIN FESTIVAL
OCT. 11-13
The season wouldn’t be complete without the farm’s lauded 10-acre gourd patch. Also included in the full-on fair: A tractor exhibit, photo booth, pony rides, horse-drawn hayrides, a jumping pillow for kids, carnival games, face painting and obstacle courses.
