Many people talk about wanting to support local business and farmers, but how often do you really follow up. Montgomery Farms is a small family-owned farm in Underwood, IN that has become one of the best kid-friendly places to take your family during the Halloween season.

Montgomery Farms is about 30 minutes north of Louisville, and each year they add and improve their selection of activities to celebrate fall and the Halloween season. They have been showcasing their corn maze in which you have to find you way out of a large corn filed while avoiding some scary characters.

They also offer an old fashioned hayride, a small cow train for the kids, and a playground. There is also a nice lake at the farm where you can shoot a cannon at targets on the other side of the water. Montgomery Farms also has some free activities including the petting zoo, goat climb, hayrides to the pumpkin patch, hay loft swings, and the farm facts center and I spy.

The farm has a nice Barn store that offers a large selection of pumpkins, gourds, and beautiful mums. They also have other fall flowers, Indian corn, jams, jellies, candles, and various fall and home decorations. Various types of in-season produce are also for sale. The farm offers Camp Montgomery where kids can spend a day learning what it is like to work on a farm. They cater corporate or group functions and parties, and Montgomery Farms can also host school field trips where kids can visit, learn, and play on the farm.

So grab the kids and head up to Indiana to spend of couple of hours on a beautiful, local, 40-acre farm that helps to preserve an agricultural tradition.
