Fallon Centennial Maze to open at Lattin Farms

Lattin Farms is celebrating agriculture and history with the opening of the Fallon Centennial Maze. This is the tenth year for the corn maze which attracts thousands of visitors each fall. On Saturday, September 27, and Fridays and Saturdays throughout October, visitors can enjoy the maze and other family attractions at Lattin Farms. Appointments may be made to visit the maze during other days of the week. Located at 1955 McLean Road in Fallon, a fall festival, pumpkin patch, scarecrow factory and hay rides are just a few more of the fall harvest festivities.


The field in which the maze is built consists of 12 acres of corn and more than a mile of twisting trails. The corn stalks will peak at a height of over 10 feet. “Fallon is celebrating its 100th birthday in 2008 and we’re joining the party,” says Rick Lattin, owner of the family farm. “This year’s maze theme will reflect the history of this great city.” Visitors can try their luck at getting through the maze by moonlight Friday and Saturday evenings in mid-October during the full moon.

A fifth generation farm, the Lattins have been farming in the Lahontan Valley since the 1860’s. In the late 1970’s, Rick and BAnn Lattin opened their farm to the general public to share their farm experiences and traditions. The farm features pick-your-own produce, children’s play area including Critterville, a roadside stand, and educational tours. For more information, call 1.866.638-6293 or visit www.lattinfarms.com.
