Beech Hill Farm creates three incredible mazes each year. They are ready to explore from August through October. The new mazes this year include Medieval Maze Quest, Summer Olympics, and the Extreme Animals.

A trip through these corn mazes is educational and fun. A brochure is provided for each maze with questions to answer (answers are hidden in the mazes) and items to find related to the theme. The mazes are approximately 4 acres in size and take about 40 minutes to find all the answers. Great entertainment for the entire family! Open daily. When you make your way out, build yourself an ice cream sundae with all the fixings!

Lee, NH

Marvel at this agricultural feat of engineering as you make your way through living walls of corn over 10 feet high! The Corn Maze will delight and challenge all ages! Our maze is professionally designed and cut from a company in Missouri.

The maze takes approximately 40 minutes to complete, but it could take longer, depending on which path you select! There are several ways to get through the maze, not just one path!

To make things more interesting, we have created "mail stops" in our about the theme of the corn maze and how it benefits farming. Answer the question correctly, and you will be led toward the correct path. Answer it incorrectly, and you will be challenged to find the correct path yourself!

The Maze is open from August to November. A 5-acre cornfield took the shape of a coyote in 2007. The theme for 2008 was "Dragonflies." Last year it was a “Great Horned Owl” and this year, the maze has been transformed into a large Turtle. Come by and get lost in the 10 foot tall walls of living corn! Fresh produce, farm animals, and all the workings of a farm surround you. Check out their exclusive flashlight mazes too.

Riverview Farm

141 River Road
Plainfield, NH
603-298-8159
Every year Riverview Farm has a corn maze with a story, clues to find and a whole host of characters. Local artist, Gary Hamel, designs the maze, writes the story and creates all of the scarecrows you will find throughout the maze. This year's story features characters from the history of Plainfield.

Plainfield's charter was signed by Royal Governor Benning Wentworth on August 14, 1761. Captain Josiah Russell and Littlefield Nash were the first (non Natives) to live in the new township.

“Life was difficult during the winter of 1764/65, but for Josiah Russell by far the most difficult aspect was being separated from his lovely wife, Lidya, and his six year old son, Josiah Jr., nicknamed “Little Joe”, who remained in Connecticut. Lidya and Little Joe were planning to travel with other families up the river by boat caravan in the month of May, 1765.” Little Joe receives a letter from his father instructing him that the seed corn they will bring must not get wet or it will spoil and not grow into the tall corn plants.

So begins this year's maze. See if you can tell fact from fiction as you follow the journey of Little Joe and his family.

The maze takes about 20 minutes to go through and is sure to be a great time for everyone, young and old. There is also a haunted corn maze on Halloween weekend. Call ahead.
