Buttermilk Farm

Fun times at Buttermilk Farm!

2010-10-25T09:29:00.000-06:00

Sadly, it's the final week Buttermilk Farm will be open this year. We still have plenty of pumpkins and corn maze fun to be had and our produce is still holding on strong! We still have corn, squash, zucchini, cucumbers, carrots, beets, eggplant, tomatoes, peppers, potatoes, onions, Santa Claus melons, a variety of apples, pluots, pears, plums and did I mention we have pumpkins!?

Here's a peak at the fun happenings on the farm. Enjoy and we'll see you out here :)

Fall Into Fun!

2010-10-13T11:25:00.001-06:00

I hope you're ready for Fall because it is here! It's time to get your pumpkins and squash for eating and decorating of course! We have plenty of pumpkins and squash to do the trick; not to mention corn stalks and beautiful mums to dress up your porch.

And if you haven't gone through the corn maze then you're seriously missing out! Get the family together and come on out for a stroll through the maze and then pick out a pumpkin of your choice!

Fall is here!

2010-10-05T11:39:00.000-06:00

After that out of the ordinary, yet welcome, warm weather we had last week it's now back to a chilly feel in the air. But don't let that you get you down; Buttermilk Farm is full of warm colors from pumpkins in all shapes, sizes and colors, mums, indian corn, dried con stalks, winter squash and more!

Starting last week we opened up our Pumpkin Patch and new to us this year - a Corn Maze! Bring the kids out, pick out a pumpkin, go through the maze and have a blast!
