Hanson's Farm — Attraction in Framingham

This place is so cute and we were pleasantly surprised to see so many healthy sunflowers still in season!

We visited on a sunny Sunday and we were relieved to see that there was plenty of parking to accommodate the weekend guests. (we read reviews at other orchards/mazes in the area that had people waiting 45-60 minutes just to park! cough cough Honey Pot, Davis Mega Maze)

We walked up to the farm stand and were immediately greeted by the friendly workers at the registers, and we could already smell the sugar in the air from the fresh cider donuts.

It was $20 each to go on the hay ride, look at the happy sheep, walk the premises, see the mini pond, take pictures in the sunflower field, sit at the picnic tables or benches, play corn hole, and explore the maze. Additionally, all adults are gifted a mini pumpkin, which is included in the $20/pp. We took our time and spent over 2.5 hours here, so we definitely thought it was worth the price.

There isn't a map or stamps to collect while you go through the maze (which I'm not used to), but it actually made it more fun to purposely go down every path (we turned right at every fork in the road, even if we could see it was a dead end)! They also had old school, abandoned tractors in random spots in the maze which helped us figure out where we were - and they were cool to sit on and look around.

The serving sizes of food were plentiful and I definitely recommend you split the baked potato ($6) and cider donut sundae ($8) because they're huge! I honestly think a family with 2 kids could share that sundae, haha. The pulled pork sandwiches were nice and smokey and came with plenty of meat, cheese, and pickles ($10).

This was a great value and I hope it stays the same for next year!

Oh! And more good things: they accept Apple pay and credit cards. So many farms are cash only so this was super convenient. Also they allow dogs in the maze and on the property, just keep them leashed of course :)

In case you're wondering about other prices, bags of apples are $12, apple sauce $9, 6 cider donuts $8, s'mores are $5 (a little pricey), and beer...

I am not sure I have ever left a review on Google and really don’t like to write bad reviews however it’s important I feel to share for other families to know ahead so kids are not disappointed or parents stressed. We found this what we thought was a small Gem the other day. We go to a lot of apple pumpkin farms in the fall. The crowds in so many can be overwhelming so a couple days later we decided to bring our son on an after school family outing to get a pumpkin and do a cornmaze. We never ever thought to get details because it wasn’t a thought in my mind that it would be like this. We were going to be charged $20 PER PERSON just to do a cornmaze and pick out a pumpkin that we then would also be paying for! So I asked if we opted out of the cornmaze could we just go out an pick my son’s pumpkin that again we would be paying for anyway. Nope just to pick out a pumpkin would still be $20!! So $60 just to go out to get a pumpkin to buy! We just couldn’t afford that and even if we could I don’t think I would spend that much ever. I of course expected to pay something but $20 per person was so way beyond. Just wanted to warn petiole so you can be prepared. Very...

If you are looking for a fun day at a pumpkin patch with your kids, I recommend you visit Hanson's Farm, it's easy to get to and close to town. My boys and I enjoyed the hayride (they thought it was the coolest thing lol) and the freshly made cinnamon donuts were yummy. Corn maze, pumpkin patch, sunflowers, sheep and chickens. $20 per person to get in and got a sugar pumpkin with each ticket. They sell some veggies there and their own brand honey which we bought and it was really GOOD. They have a school bus turned into an ice cream truck (again my boys thought it was so cool) The ice cream was good but the frustrating part was that the girl could not get the order right, we explained 3 times and at the end she managed to get it wrong, Im not sure if she had trouble hearing or her brain wasn't present at that moment. Anyways we had fun and took great photos in the pumpkin patch. We will go...
