Our Story
Our grandparents bought this land in the late 1940s. Our dad grew up here, bought the farm and raised us four kids here. Two of us kids now manage the farm with lots of help from our siblings, our kids, and numerous family members.
When we first opened Thistleberry Farm in 2005, it was just a single corn maze and a dream of creating a place where families could slow down and enjoy time together. Over the years, we’ve grown alongside our community, our pumpkin patch has been a favorite for many years, and more recently we’ve added sunflower and lavender fields that have quickly become some of the farm’s most-loved spots.
​
For us, Thistleberry Farm isn’t just about attractions, it’s about tradition. From kids riding the cow train to families sharing caramel apple cider on a crisp fall day, we love seeing generations come together here. Every season brings something new to share, whether it’s fields in full bloom or the magic of autumn on the farm.
​
As a family-owned and operated farm, we’re grateful for the support and smiles our visitors bring year after year. Thistleberry Farm has always been about more than just fun, it’s about creating moments you’ll remember long after you leave.
