There are so many interesting ways to play with nature and create something beautiful. A corn maze is one such example of using nature to create art. There are some really intricate pieces that look amazing from above ground. These mazes are also lots of fun to visit and walk through, and many have become major tourist attractions over the years, particularly in North America.
The world's largest of these mazes was named in 2010 by the Guinness Book of World Records. It is found in Dixon, California. However, it may not actually be the largest, as there is a maze of 62 acres found at Adventure Acres in a location just outside Dayton, Ohio. This maze features eight and a half miles of trails.
There's a lot to plan out before planting anything to make a maze. Farmers have to take into account the type of corn they will use throughout the project, dependent on how high and how strong they want it to grow. Additionally, they must be careful to cut the stalk properly, including the inside, where the walkways are supposed to go so that there is no regrowth onto the path.
One of the most damaging things to look out for is the rotting of the stalks, which is very common. This disease happens for a number of reasons. Moisture can play a part in the stalk rotting or it could be an issue with moisture. It is also very important to note when to plant during the year, as it is not at the same time as planting other crops in farming and agriculture.
You can decide what type of mazes you would like to visit based on the ages of those who are going with you. For a family trip or even a kids' birthday party, a daytime maze is perfect. These are generally under 10 feet high and take an hour or less to get through. This, of course, is dependent on the size of the maze. Add a little spice to the journey by leaving clues or puzzles to be solved along the way.
Teenagers may well enjoy visiting one of these sites during the night. They can still solve puzzles or find clues to a prize, but in the night time this requires additional skill due to the dark, hence why it is better for the older ones. Flashlights make the experience more thrilling, and there is lots of fun to be had trying to find the way out with friends.
For young adults and older individuals, a haunted version is probably the most exciting way to explore. This is great particularly at Halloween, or even for some sort of murder mystery-style party. The suspense of making your way to the exit with unexpected thrills and screams and laughter is definitely not something you will forget any time soon!
In England, they are called maize mazes and are generally found in the east of the country. Most times, farmers will include other attractions for day visitors to these sites. These may include petting zoos, pony rides, hay rides or picnic zones for the whole family to enjoy. It is a good way to make extra income for farmers in the region.
