Suter Produce has been creating a corn maze since 1999, and I don’t know why it’s taken me so long to experience this northwest Ohio attraction. I decided to tackle the corn maze this year with my family in tow, including two very young grandchildren.

We entered the maze with excitement and were surprised to find there is a scavenger hunt as you go through. They hand you a long piece of cardboard with fill-in-the-blank clues. When you find the clue, you stamp your card.
