A working Cherokee County dairy that puts on a real fall festival — pig races, sheepdog herding and a ten-acre maze — for a Farm Pass in the $12-$15 range, though the 2026 dates and the current price tiers had not been published when we checked.
A Farm Pass covering the activities was listed at $15 for ages 3 and up. An archived version of the farm's own page showed a $12 Farm Pass and a $17 Farm Plus adding a wagon ride to Cagle's Lake with marshmallows and a bonfire; a 2025 guide described a $5 add-on for that ride. Pumpkins sold separately. Sunflower picking $2 per stem. Cash and cards accepted.
Rough cost for a family of four: about $60.00 in admission alone at the posted starting rate, before pumpkins, food, parking or any add-on listed above. Most families end up well north of that once they are through the gate.
Cagle’s is a dairy first. That is the thing that separates it from the agritourism parks that dominate Atlanta’s fall listings, and it shows up in what the farm chooses to put on: sheepdog herding demonstrations, an animal barn, pig races. Those are demonstrations of what the property actually does, not attractions bought in for October, and if you have a child who is more interested in animals than in inflatables, that difference matters.
The ten-acre corn maze is the other headline, and ten acres is genuinely large. Georgia farms north of the fall line grow their own corn and cut real mazes into it, so this is not a plywood labyrinth or a decorative loop — plan for the better part of an hour, and take the mini maze option for anyone under about five.
The Farm Pass model is straightforward in principle: one price covers the activities, and pumpkins are a separate purchase. In practice, the pricing we could find is a mess. A $15 pass for ages 3 and up is the most recent figure; an archived version of the farm’s own page showed a $12 base pass and a $17 tier adding a wagon ride out to Cagle’s Lake with marshmallows and a bonfire; a 2025 guide described that same ride as a $5 add-on rather than a pass tier.
We cannot resolve that for you, and neither can any of the sources. What we can tell you is what to ask at the gate: is the lake ride included, upgraded or added on, and is the sunflower field a separate charge. Getting a straight answer to those two questions before you pay is worth more than any price we could quote here.
The hours are worth reading carefully because they are unusual. Friday does not open until 5pm and then runs to 10pm — an evening-only session. Saturday is a full twelve hours, 10am to 10pm. Sunday is a short day, closing at 6pm.
A Friday evening at a farm with a bonfire is a genuinely good version of this outing, and it is the quietest slot on the calendar. It is also the coldest. North Georgia in October can hand you a 70-degree afternoon and a 45-degree night in the same visit, and a 5pm arrival means you will be there for the whole of that drop. Dress for the hour you leave, not the hour you arrive.
No 2026 season dates had been published anywhere we could reach. The day-and-hour pattern above is what recent seasons ran, not a confirmed calendar. For a farm whose fall season is measured in weekends, that is the single most important thing to check before you commit a Friday night to it.
Friday is the odd one out and the most interesting option: the farm opens at 5pm and runs to 10pm, which makes it an evening visit rather than a day out. That is the quietest window and the best light, but it is also the coldest — a Georgia October evening drops fast after sunset and a 5pm arrival in shorts becomes a mistake by 7pm. Saturday runs the full 10am to 10pm and is the busiest day by a distance. Sunday closes at 6pm, so it is the shortest day but avoids the Saturday crush.
Two to three hours on a normal visit. The ten-acre maze alone can eat 45 minutes to an hour with a group that does not cheat, and the pig races and sheepdog demonstrations run to a schedule you will want to build around rather than stumble into.
The farm sits in the Canton-Woodstock corridor, which is dense, family-heavy and within easy reach of a large chunk of north metro Atlanta. Saturday daytime is the peak. Friday evening and the last hours of Sunday are the obvious relief valves.
Not published. This is a working dairy, so expect field or pasture parking rather than pavement — and north Georgia rain in October is real rain, not a fifteen-minute Florida squall. Wet weekends will mean mud.
You need the schedule nailed down in advance. No 2026 season dates had been posted anywhere we could read, and the farm's own site would not serve current fall pages, so the days and hours here are the pattern from recent seasons rather than a confirmed 2026 calendar.
The most recent figure we found was a $15 Farm Pass for ages 3 and up. An archived version of the farm's own page showed a $12 Farm Pass and a $17 Farm Plus that added the wagon ride to Cagle's Lake with marshmallows and a bonfire, and a 2025 guide described that ride instead as a $5 add-on. The sources disagree, so treat $12-$17 as the range and confirm at the gate.
No. Pumpkins are sold separately, as is sunflower picking at a reported $2 per stem. The pass covers the activities.
Sources disagree, which is why searching for it can be confusing. The Census geocoder returns Canton, Cherokee County for 362 Stringer Road. Either way, it is the same farm at the same address.
2026 dates had not been published when we last checked. In past seasons it has run: Friday, Saturday and Sunday.. Check with the farm before driving out.

What sets it apart locally: it has u-pick fields, which most Atlanta Metro patches on our list do not.
One caveat worth repeating: this farm had not published its 2026 dates when we last checked, while 3 of the 12 patches we track in Atlanta Metro had. Treat any date you see elsewhere as last year's until the farm confirms it.
