MAZE OCTOBER 2015 | BOROMAG.COM | 51 Runners Autumn has officially drifted in when the denim and hoodies come out of storage, and weekends at the beach are traded for journeys to apple orchards, pumpkin patches and haunted houses. Fortunately, we don’t have to travel too far for some apple cider and toasty grilled cheese. At the Queens County Farm Museum, guests can indulge in everything from hayrides to a petting zoo, an enormous maze carved out of a field of maize, or even a farmers market located on an actual farm. We sent out a team early in September to check out the festivities, and the verdict is in—we found it a-MAZE-ing. Check out the schedule of the exciting events planned for this autumn.
