Description From Owner:
Cricklewood Farm offers fun for the whole family. Raspberries are available from early July to early Aug (call ahead for hours) and mid-Sept to mid-Oct.
Our apple orchard is around 10 acres in size. Throughout the season, we have over 40 different varieties of apples; 13 of which are available for pick your own. The season begins with Paulared around mid-August.
On our farm we have an experimental plot which has several new apple varieties as well as many that are still being evaluated and as of yet are identified by a code. Have some fun and try a sample -you may just find a new favourite apple.
Every year our 6 acre corn maze changes. Over the past 7 years it has been an apple & corn cob, an elephant, a dragon, a castle, wolves, a pirate & his ship, an octopus, firefighter and this year it is a spider and it's web.
Maze adventurers are challenged to solve several puzzles by collecting clues and information found in the maze. If they solve these puzzles they are rewarded with a prize.
During the season we have all kinds of pumpkins; orange, striped, white, big & small. Squash include acorn/pepper, butternut, orange & green hubbard, buttercup, sweet dumpling, spaghetti, turban, grey ghost, pink banana, stripetti & blue hubbard.
We also sell sweet corn, gourds, cornstalks, honey, homemade pies & cookies, and candy & caramel apples (on weekends).
A picnic area and straw mountain are available for your use and enjoyment.
School tours begin in Sept and end in mid Oct. They can be booked for Tues., Wed., & Thurs. of those weeks. All tours are walking tours.
Group rates for the maze are available for 20 or more people and can be booked for off hours.
In 2009 we will be getting together with the Brighton Fire Department on Oct 14th & theUnited Way on Oct 17. A portion of our maze sales will be donated to these organizations. Why not come out and join in the fun?
