Corn Maze Design Showcases Harvester’s Logo
When you fly over Carolyn’s Country Cousins Pumpkin Patch and the Liberty Corn Maze, you’ll see the Harvesters Community Food Network logo. The Liberty Corn Maze is launching a food drive for Harvester’s during Hunger Action Month in September. For a maximum of 2 cans donated, you will be able to get $2 off your ticket to the corn maze.*
The Liberty Corn Maze opens August 31st. “We’re excited about supporting Harvesters Community Food Network,” says Carolyn Raasch, owner of Carolyn’s Country Cousins Pumpkin Patch. “We’re a working farm family that has made a living from providing quality produce to feed families. Now we’re reaching out to needy families with this drive.”
The corn maze cutter spent 18 hours on a tractor carefully cutting the path for the maze. Put August 31st on your calendar and plan to come with 2 cans to the Liberty Corn Maze! You’ll combat hunger and enjoy your friends and family in the maze that has the Harvesters logo.
