Amazing Corn Maze in Mount Dora, Florida
I love visiting a farm! The smell of fresh grass and hay, the sound of a distant tractor, and the overall free feeling of walking in “God’s Country” is so renewing to the spirit!
Having visited many farms… my great-grandparents’ farm in Michigan… corn-maze farms in Florida… olive farms in Italy… coffee farms in Costa Rica… and more…
This time, I’m visiting the Long & Scott Farms in Mount Dora, Florida.
My husband and I spent a day walking through a corn maze while we were dating, and boy, can you learn a lot how someone reacts to “nature” activities! Funny, really!
I want to share some tips to help make it a great date for your day of walking through a corn maze:
Wear comfortable clothing.
A thin t-shirt is great (or sweater if cool outside). You will be bending over a lot, so no tight-waist pants!
Wear old shoes, as you will be walking in dirt (and possibly mud).
Best are old sneakers or better yet, ankle-height boots.
Wear a good sunhat.
As I’m a blonde and get sunburn on the top of my head, I always wear a sunhat. Plus it keeps all the bugs out of your hair!
Wear sunglasses.
Squinting for hours in the sun can potentially cause a headache.
Bring a bottle (or two) of water.
Always stay hydrated while out in the field!
Bring one frozen water bottle if picking during summer months.
This way, you will have a super-cold drink!
Carry the biggest basket you can
You will want to bring as much fruit/vegetables/nuts home as possible!
