It now costs $81 (discounted price, regular is $93) for a family of three to just get into Davis Farmland. That’s a lot for a maze.

Isn’t that ridiculous? It’s right up the road from me and I always wanted to check it out. I brought my son, my girlfriend and her three daughters and had to bite my lip the whole day.

Not worth it at all, I’m not sure how they get away with it. Combination of good marketing and probably used to be cheap so people have good memories of it. But it’s crazy for a family of four to pay $100+ to see some animals and go in a maze. Especially with a lot of other places closer to Worcester. Stowe Farm as I previously mentioned is $3 a person. West End Creamery in Northbridge right off 146 is $18 a person and pretty fun. Tougas in Northborough is even free entry and then pretty pricey if you wanna pick apples or something.

But the “farm family fun” experience can be had for a lot cheaper and better than Davis Farmland.

Crazy isn’t it?! I guess as long as people keep paying, the cost will probably keep going up.
Thank you very much for the suggestions! What is the Creamery all about?

West End Creamery is just a nice ice cream place most of the time, but during fall weekends there’s a real nice fall festival. Haven’t been this year, but last year it was $18 for anyone over 3 feet tall. And they were kinda scummy and charged my 3 year old who was actually around 34 inches full price. It was annoying at the time, but I’m sure the high school age kids working the gate didn’t mean any harm and try to scam me out of money. I’d still recommend it over Davis Farmland.
