Gross Farms

Gross Farms is a seventh-generation family farm, and this fall the Gross family is welcoming Sanford back to enjoy it! The 10-acre corn maze is a challenge for the whole family, the pumpkin patch is ripe for picking, and the hayrides loop around the working property with a few stories along the way. Live music, kid-favorite play areas like the Pumpkin Jump and Tire Mountain, and homemade ice cream from Mema’s Creamery round out an autumn outside that has been a local favorite since 2002.
