Happy Day Farm

Happy Day Farm on Iron Ore Road in Manalapan runs its fall season on select dates from September 19 through November 8, 2026, from 10 AM to 5 PM with last entry at 4 PM. Every year more than 10 acres become a corn maze with 3 miles of paths and a lookout bridge.

What does it cost, and which days are which?

Monday, Wednesday and Thursday in October are weekday days, at $23 a person, with pumpkin picking, the corn maze, tractor rides and photo spots. Saturdays, Sundays and Columbus Day are Fall Festival days at $29, adding over 35 activities like the animal zoo, corn box, slides, pedal carts and pig races. Tickets are needed for everyone 2 and older, and the farm is closed on Tuesdays.

Is the corn maze too long for little kids?

There are two paths: a shorter one that takes about 15 to 25 minutes, and a harder one that takes 45 to 60 minutes. Take a photo of the maze map at the entrance to help you find your way.

Can we bring food or the dog?

No outside food or drinks, and no pets except trained service animals. Food trucks and picnic tables are there on fall days. Bring cash, because the pumpkin patch and flower fields are cash only.

Is it okay for a wheelchair or stroller?

The farm says it is not fully wheelchair accessible because of uneven, grassy and gravel ground. Some areas are reached by tractor ride, and a tractor with a chair lift is available.
