Central Ohio has some amazing farms to visit in the fall for pumpkins, activities, and agri-tourism, and Van Buren Acres in Hebron is one of the best for fall and holiday farm fun!
If you’ve driven east on Columbus on Rt. 70, you’ve probably seen this fun farm in the Columbus area. Van Buren Acres is a family-owned farm featuring activities for every age. Explore the Peanuts-themed corn maze, 9 acre Sunflower patch, and all of the farm fun.
The farm also features a soy bean maze, pig and duck races, cow train barrel ride, hay ride, farm animals, gem mining, giant jumping pillow, pedal carts, putt putt, huge corn bin with tons of toys, hay stacks to climb, and other activities.
Animals to visit include emus, miniature donkeys, goats, peahens and a beautiful peacock, bunnies, pigs, Easter chickens who lay green and blue eggs, and more!
Fall Fun at Van Buren Acres
Van Buren Acres opens on Wednesday, September 7, 2024, and is open on Wednesdays – Sundays from 10 am to 7 pm. The last day is November 3, 2024.
Activities are spread out nicely to eliminate crowding, but are still an easy walking distance, and the path is stroller friendly. There are tons of awesome photo ops, including lots of wooden props, pumpkin stacks, and fall displays.

Don’t let a cool day deter you from visiting! There are several buildings with activities and animals to get out of the wind; and the kids will be running around too much to notice a chill!
