Finding Oz at Escobar Farm Corn Maze
Escobar Farm Corn Maze Opens for 15th Season on Friday, August 22
With 8 acres of corn planted the Escobar family is bringing the “MAiZE” craze back to Rhode Island. Come join the Escobar’s for some fun, with their corn maze, celebrating The Wizard of Oz’s 75th anniversary. Though the correct pathways can be walked in under 30 minutes, most directionally-challenged visitors will require about one hour to travel through more than two miles of twists and turns, 2 bridges, and 85 decision points.
The MAiZE will give visitors the chance to “get lost” August 22 through November 2. Hours are Monday thru Saturday 10:00 - dusk, Sundays 11:00 - dusk. After Labor Day, hours are Fridays 3:30 - dusk, Saturdays 10:00 - dusk and Sundays 11:00 - dusk. Field trip hours, during weekdays, are available by reservation. The MAiZE is located at 255 Middle Road, Portsmouth, RI. Cost is $8.00 for ages 12 & up, $6.00 for ages 5 - 11 and free for kids under 5. Discounts are offered for civic groups and field trips. For more information or to make reservations, call Lori Clarke at 401-864-1064 or visit either www.escobarshighlandfarm.com or www.themaize.com. You can also visit us on facebook.
