One of Illinois's most fun farms for fall in Illinois and home to the "world's largest corn maze" has just released the maze theme for the 2024 season.

History of Richardson Adventure Farm

Richardson Adventure Farm in Spring Grove, Illinois, started as a humble family farm in 1840. Over the years, it evolved into one of the top fall destinations in the Midwest. The Richardson family introduced their first corn maze in 2001, and it quickly became the centerpiece of the farm's fall activities.
