Have some fall fun at Buford Corn Maze — including the Haunted Forest and Pumpkin Patch!
The Buford Corn Maze is under new ownership in 2024!
It’s now being run by the same family that operates Dahlonega Butterfly Farm.
The Buford Corn Maze was named one of the top 25 corn mazes in America by Country Living.
This popular attraction is now in its 16th year.
In addition to the corn maze, the attraction features a haunted attraction in October, and a Christmas tree lot during the holidays.
The farm is filled with other attractions and activities for all ages as well, including a hayride, pony rides, farm animals, a jumping pillow, slide, and concessions.
Toward the bottom of the page, we have a list of discounts and special deals for 2024.
