Camera Obscura
View the maze from the perspective of our walk-in dark chamber optical device.
Potato Cannons
Potato cannons, potato blasters…or Spudnik Blasters. No matter what you call them, they are fun! Test your aim by seeing if you can hit targets over 100 feet way. Hit the right target and you could win a prize!
Dave's Derby
Race around Dave’s Derby on person-powered four-wheel carts! They come in two sizes, so both adults and kids can take a ride around the track.
Wagon Rides
Enjoy a scenic ride around the maze and Warner Farm. The view of Mt. Sugarloaf and the fall foliage while riding in a tractor-drawn wagon, is a favorite of many of our annual visitors.
Petting Zoo
Who doesn’t love baby animals! We’ve got goats, alpacas, calves, lambs, piglets and more!
Face Painting
Add a little sparkle to your visit! We are happy to welcome Wicked Fun Faces to paint eye catching and fun designs, in the most vivid colors.
The Great Potato Cannon Controversy
Back many years ago when Mike first got his potato cannons, it caused quite a stir. The word on South Main Street in Sunderland was that Mike’s Two New Potato Cannons, imported all the way from the great state of Michigan, might be too big for the peace-loving Pioneer Valley. (Some say they look exactly like the Rebel Blasters in The Empire Strikes Back — used on the ice planet Hoth to repel Imperial Stormtroopers.) Yes, they are big. Yes, they can really really fire potatoes. Yes, Mike is worried that he might look a warmonger to his neighbors.
Nothing Could be Farther From Mike’s Mind.
What is on Mike’s Mind then?
Potato Salad. What could be more peace-loving than potatoes put to good use? Chopped up while still steamy, stirred together with free-range organic mayo? With sweet onions from Warner Farm’s CSA boxes? A little cilantro maybe, celery, salt pepper. Potato salad, we heard, was Gandhi’s favorite food.
Tater Tots. When you think of Tater Tots you think of childhood around the fire, stray tots falling in the flames. It’s ok. The dog will eat the burnt ones.
Mash Potatoes = grandma, right? And was your grandmother a warmonger? We all know the answer to that.
And so it was put to a vote at the Maze that season. The potato cannons became potato blasters and received a nifty new paint job.
