A fifth-year fall festival in Meridian with two corn mazes, 40+ pumpkin varieties, pony rides, and a haunted attraction on Friday–Saturday nights — but the farm's 2026 dates and hours are not yet confirmed on its website, and there is no published pricing or detailed activity pricing structure, so this farm requires a phone call before you plan your visit.
The Farmstead Corn Maze & Pumpkin Festival is an established October event in Meridian (its fifth year in 2026) offering two corn mazes with different difficulty levels, a hay-bale maze for younger children, 40+ pumpkin varieties, pony rides, farm animals, and a haunted corn maze called Field of Screams on Friday and Saturday nights.
The venue sits near the corner of Park & Ride and Rackham Way in Meridian, in an accessible location within the Treasure Valley.
The farm has not published its 2026 opening date, hours, or admission price on its website. This is not uncommon for established fall festivals — many farms finalize dates and pricing in late summer — but it means a phone call to 208-922-5678 is your only way to know when and for how much. The research notes confirm the farm has five years of history, so it is genuinely operating; the 2026 details simply are not online yet.
The farm features two corn mazes with different difficulty paths, allowing families to choose a challenge level. A separate hay-bale maze serves younger children who find a traditional maze frustrating or too complex. That segmentation is valuable for mixed-age groups.
The pony rides and farm-animal interaction are noted in research materials, but whether those are included in admission or priced separately is unclear. Confirm this when you call — it affects your budget planning significantly.
Field of Screams (the haunted corn maze) operates Friday and Saturday evenings in October. Haunted attractions vary dramatically in intensity and age-appropriateness. Ask the farm directly about scare level and any age guidelines when you call to confirm 2026 dates.
This is a real, established venue worth visiting, but the 2026 logistics require legwork. Call 208-922-5678 in late August or early September to confirm opening date, hours, admission cost, and any activity pricing or group options you might need.
October, once 2026 dates are confirmed. The farm opens sometime in October and typically runs weekends, but calling 208-922-5678 is the only way to confirm the exact opening date, hours, and any weekday options for 2026.
Budget three to four hours, assuming both mazes and some additional activities. Field of Screams (the haunted corn maze) runs Friday and Saturday nights only and might extend your visit if that appeals.
An established fifth-year fall festival in a mid-sized metro area (Meridian is part of the Treasure Valley) will draw crowds. October weekends are peak season everywhere, and this farm's festive positioning (pony rides, farm animals, haunted nights) suggests family-focused crowds.
Parking is not described in published materials. Located near a Park & Ride, which may influence lot design. Confirm with the farm directly.
The two-path corn maze and hay-bale maze are not detailed for accessibility. Call the farm if you have access questions or mobility concerns.
You need detailed pricing, hours, or specific 2026 dates before booking. The farm's website does not show 2026 hours or pricing, and only a phone call will provide those details. If you plan from a distance or cannot handle last-minute uncertainty, this may cause frustration.
The farm has not yet published its 2026 opening date on its website. Call 208-922-5678 to confirm. The farm has operated for five years, so a seasonal pattern likely exists, but 2026 dates specifically require direct contact.
