Two Saturdays remain to enjoy the LushAcres Farm fall festival
October 21, 2026
Families who have not yet made it out to the LushAcres Farm fall festival in Clinton still have time, and the calendar is to thank for it.
October 2026 has five Saturdays, giving the festival five dates on the schedule this year. Even with one Saturday lost to rain, two festival days remain: Saturday, Oct. 24, and Saturday, Oct. 31. Gates are open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. both days at the farm, 1875 W. Maple St. Extension in Clinton.
Admission at the gate is $15 for visitors ages 3 and older, and children 2 and younger get in free. One ticket covers nearly everything on the property.
The corn maze remains the main attraction, with rows that challenge visitors of every age. Other activities include corn cannons, wagon rides, barnyard animals, face painting, mini-train rides, a jump pad, a corn pit and a giant slide. Children can also enjoy the bouncing rodeo, GaGa ball, barnyard basketball and the playground, and photo spots throughout the farm offer plenty of chances to capture fall memories.
Live music is part of every festival Saturday, with sets at 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. included with admission. Cross Ties Bluegrass Band will close out the season on Halloween, Oct. 31, making the final Saturday a festive way to celebrate the holiday on the farm.
For a little extra, visitors can use quarters in the animal feeding machines to get up close with the farm’s residents. The gem mine offers a prospector’s bag for $20 or a forty-niner bucket for $40 for young treasure hunters.
The pumpkin patch is open for picking, along with the mums garden and farm market. Food and concessions are available on site, so families can plan to spend the whole day.
The vendors village features handcrafted and locally made goods, offering an early start on holiday shopping. Items include wax melts, room sprays, crochet plushies, beaded jewelry, wooden bowls, cutting boards, customizable signs, jams, jellies, herbal salts, baked goods and herb plants. Wags N Whiskers will also be on hand with freshly baked soft treats for dogs, cats and horses.
Proceeds from the festival support Thornwell’s mission to prevent child abuse and neglect, build and reunite families, and strengthen communities. LushAcres sits on 340 acres of the Thornwell campus and operates as an extension of the Thornwell ministry. The working farm raises beef cattle, pasture-raised broilers and egg layers, along with seasonal produce, including U-pick berries in the spring and pumpkins in the fall.
