Nothing kicks off the fall like visiting a local pumpkin farm. The smell of fresh-baked goods from an on-site bakery, getting lost in a corn maze, and riding a train through a pumpkin patch are all memories every child, and adults alike, should get to experience every year. Each year we visit as many local pumpkin farms as we can, not only to support local farmers, but also to create life long memories with our children.

This is a panoramic view from a bridge in the middle of the corn maze I took with my iPhone. This was my first time using the new panoramic feature and I love how the photograph turned out.
