We were positively blown away by the creativity and gamut of activities at Wickham Farm. It definitely scores as one of the top adventure farms we’ve visited. There is such a large range of activities to keep all ages busy for a full day.
After entering the farm, we met up with a variety of fun activities all with the farm feel. The little children enjoyed a ride on the Wickham Express train while the older children ran straight to the Hillside Slide-a slide built into the hill with sacks used a mat to slide down. Although the 18 hole mini golf course can be considered an attraction of its own, it was also included in the general admission.
The large jumping pillows which are like giant colorful trampolines in the center of the play area beckon everyone to try it. Just behind the jumping pillows are the zipline lanes, known as the hay trollies, where visitors were hopping on the little seat and zipping along. There are also a couple of playgrounds on site and the low ropes obstacle course that is a real challenge.
Scattered throughout the adventure area are many additional activities such as giant checkers, bubble barn, barrel horses, tetherball and wall board games. We really enjoyed all the farmyard activities before continuing on to Corn-a-Copia.
Corn-a-Copia was our families all time favorite. We played in the “corn box” a huge pit in a building filled with kernels of corn where children and adults can chill and play. Instead of playing in sand, we played in corn kernels with toy trucks, shovels and even a canoe. There are benches along the perimeter of the kernel pit and chairs just outside the pit where many adults hang out and watch their children play.
Next, we tried the challenging corn maze. We looked for the many clues along the way and tried to find our way out of the twisting and winding path before giving up and checking the emergency clue to help us out.
Wickham Farm is famous for their sunflower fields in the summer which make for the most magnificent photo ops. The fields are just a tractor-ride away. For an additional fee, visitors can pick sunflowers as well as many other beautiful flowers grown at the farm and the florists on site can arrange them.
Wickham Farm offers many food experiences. Their six different types of food stores on site offer different experiences such as freshly baked goods, pizza, a grilled food and many more farm fresh goodies.
