This year marks the 18th year Uncle Shuck’s has had a corn maze in north Georgia, which is the longest-operating corn maze in the state. This fall, farm goers can bump along on an old-fashioned wagon ride, navigate the miles and miles of corn maze paths in the 13-acre field, pick a pumpkin, chow down on some delish festival food and more.
“We look forward to seeing familiar faces and families who make it an annual tradition to visit Uncle Shuck’s, and lots of new faces too!” said Mathew Hughes, farm owner/operator.
