Corn Maze At Matt Lark Farm To Open Friday, Available To Public On Weekends Thru October

Matt Lark's Corn Maze for 2003 will open this Friday, September 19th, and will be available for the public to try on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, thru October. This year's maze features a cowboy on a horse, and has a patriotic "God Bless The U.S.A." included.

According to Matt, Friday hours will be from 4:00 p.m. until dark. Saturday hours will be from Noon until 10:00 p.m. (bring your flashlight for after dark participation), and Sunday hours are Noon to 6:00 p.m. The admission for the maze experience is $5, and includes a hayride. Children under age 5 will be admitted free. Group rates are also available.

In addition to the corn maze, you may also view five types of popcorn, cotton, over 10 acres of sunflowers (including red ones), milo, 60 types of gourds, and 10 varieties of pumpkins, including white and red, in addition to the traditional orange. There is multi-colored broom corn growing, and several plots of soybeans for the youth to see.

Matt told The News that field trips for 3,000 school children have already been reserved, coming from as far as Vincennes and Evansville. He also anticipates several scout groups this Fall.

The maze is 15 acres, one of the largest in the United States.

Mike Kavanaugh, of White River Co-Op, has been a great asset with the crops, and Bill and Tillie Brown, as well as George and Betty Foster, are assisting at the Lark Ranch.
