Cherry Hill Farms Fall Festival: Pumpkin Patches and Corn Mazes Minutes from Greenleaf

When the air turns crisp and the leaves start to change, families across the Treasure Valley know it is time for one of the best seasonal traditions: the Cherry Hill Farms Fall Festival in Caldwell. Located at 19125 Apricot Lane, this local gem is just 10 miles from 20602 Academy Rd in Greenleaf, making it the closest pumpkin patch and corn maze destination for residents of this quiet rural community. Here is everything you need to know about spending a perfect autumn day there.

What Cherry Hill Farms Offers

Cherry Hill Farms operates one of the Treasure Valley's most popular fall festivals, with a season typically running from late September through late October or early November. The centerpiece is a sprawling 7-acre corn maze with multiple trail options, so families with young children can take the shorter route while adventurous groups tackle the full maze. The farm also offers:

• A pumpkin patch with a wide variety of pumpkins, from tiny decorative gourds to towering jack-o-lantern specimens
• Pick-your-own apples from the farm's orchard, a chance to taste the Treasure Valley's exceptional apple harvest fresh from the tree
• Wagon rides around the property, giving kids and adults a chance to enjoy the rural scenery and mountain views
• Farm animals for children to meet and feed
• Tube slides, hay pyramids, and other farm fun for active play
• Fresh apple cider and seasonal treats from the farm stand

Why Location Matters

One of the things that makes 20602 Academy Rd such an appealing home is its proximity to experiences like this. From the property, you are on winding country roads for just a few minutes before reaching Cherry Hill Farms on Apricot Lane. It is close enough for a spontaneous afternoon trip after school or work, yet the farm itself feels a world away in the countryside. This is the best of rural Greenleaf living: you have privacy and space at home, and seasonal attractions like this are right around the corner.
