Aerial view of the 2026 Mapleside corn maze: a giant bald eagle, stars, and flag-inspired pathways carved into seven acres of corn for America's 250th anniversary 7 Acres
Introducing Our 2026 Corn Maze

America, 250 Years

This year, America turns 250. We decided the appropriate response was to carve a giant bald eagle into seven acres of corn.

Our 2026 maze celebrates the occasion with a massive eagle, stars, and flag-inspired pathways cut into the corn field.

From above, it is a patriotic work of agricultural art. From the ground, it is seven acres of decisions, wrong turns, and confident people gradually becoming less confident.

It is big enough to test your sense of direction, detailed enough to honor the occasion, and planted with enough corn to make every shortcut look like a terrible idea.

History rarely follows a straight line. Neither does this maze.
