Recently reopened family farm with 30+ attractions and extended maze hours, but 2026 pricing is not yet published—the farm may still be stabilizing operations post-Hurricane Helene.
Admission pricing varies by activity
Fender’s Farm is a family-owned operation in Jonesborough that recently reopened after Hurricane Helene damage. The 2026 corn maze is explicitly dedicated to the helpers who assisted the farm during recovery—a genuine story point. The farm lists pumpkin patch, corn maze, haunted maze, hayrides, and 30+ attractions ranging from corn cannons and cow trains to pig races, wagon rides, slides, low-ropes courses, and jumping pillows.
This farm was substantially affected by Hurricane Helene and has since reopened. This is a positive sign of community resilience and farm viability, but it also means 2026 operations may still be stabilizing. Some attractions may be recently rebuilt, new, or temporarily adjusted. Call ahead not as an insult to the farm but as practical due diligence: confirm that the attractions you’re specifically interested in are currently operational and that hours and pricing reflect the current stable state.
The record does not publish 2026 pricing or confirmed hours. This is not unusual for a farm that has recently reopened (priorities shift to getting operations stable before publishing schedules), but it does mean you cannot finalize a visit plan without a phone call to 423-753-4469. The extended maze hours on Friday and Saturday evenings (maze listed as open later than daytime attractions) are valuable for families preferring evening visits but are not confirmed for 2026.
The farm lists pumpkins, corn maze, haunted maze (seasonal), hayrides, corn cannon, corn box, cow train, trikes, pig races, wagon rides, slides, low-ropes course, and jumping pillow. That’s 13 explicitly named activities plus “more.” For a recently reopened farm, confirm that all major attractions you’re interested in are currently operational. The haunted maze is likely seasonal (late October weekends), not running throughout the season.
Jonesborough is Tennessee’s oldest town (chartered 1779) and has a genuine historic downtown with local restaurants, antique shops, and community events. A Fender’s Farm visit pairs naturally with downtown exploration, making a full fall afternoon in the area more substantial than just the farm alone.
Early October visits carry less crowd risk and avoid any late-season operational adjustments the farm might be making. Evening visits (especially Friday/Saturday maze hours, if confirmed as extended) may offer more peaceful experiences than daytime peak hours.
October weekends. Saturday maze hours extend to 10pm, which suits families preferring evening visits. Call ahead to confirm current operating schedule.
2–3 hours for a typical family visit; 1–2 hours for maze-only.
