Fall trip to Kelsay Farms

Each year, the girls beg to go to some kind of fall farm festival. And each year we go, but we've never found a farm that we've loved and go back to each year.

So this weekend, we tried out Kelsay Farms. It's located south of Indy in Whiteland (just about 5 min from Greenwood). I was instantly drawn to this farm because the admission price includes ALL activities. I have never seen this before at any farm we've visited in the last few years. It's always a few dollars per person to get in and then a couple dollars per activity on top of admission.

The first thing we did was the 5 acre corn maze. It was huge. And thankfully, they give you an aerial picture of the maze so that you can use it to help navigate your way though. Plus, there's a fun game you can play by finding 5 questions and answers along the way. (You turn those in for a free pencil.)

When we finally found all 5 Q&A's and made our way to the exit, the girls ran to the hayride. It was a nice rest after walking around 5 acres in circles! After we rested our legs, we grabbed a quick snack. Surprisingly, the food was pretty reasonably priced. (We got a hot dog, string cheese, Cheetos and 4 drinks for $7.)

Rested and fed, we went to the huge "bale mountain." It was basically a huge playground made of hay bales. The girls LOVED it! Lucas even got in on the fun.

We also visited the calves - only 23 days old! They were so cute.

The girls also played in a "corn crib." It was basically a sand box, but filled with corn kernels instead of sand. It was so neat. There was even a slide in it. Alaina had Cameran bury her in corn! That was, of course, after Alaina found a Taylor Swift poster.

Our last stop at the farm was the Moo Choo Express. It was a tractor pulling cow trailers behind it for kids. It was the funniest ride!

By this point, I had a cranky 11 month old and a tired husband, so we ended up leaving before experiencing everything on the farm. We were there for 2 hours and we still missed out on the magic show, face painting, milk parlor and barn tours, and the rope maze. There is seriously a TON of things to do at this farm.

You should totally go. It's open each weekend in October (Friday, Saturday & Sunday). Check out their website for hours and special activities lined up for each weekend. (One thing that looks especially fun is going trick or treating in the corn maze!)

We received free tickets for our family to visit Kelsay Farms. BUT, we had a great time and I would have written this post even if we had paid for our tickets. You really should visit. :) If you are going to go, leave a comment and let me know. I have one extra ticket that we didn't use (kiddos under 2 are free) that I would LOVE to pass along to you!  (sorry! the ticket's been claimed.)
