Get Lost – 5 Okanagan Corn Mazes

What comes to mind when you think of corn fields? Harvest? Autumn? Quaint roadside produce stands? How about corn mazes? In the crisp air under a tepid sun we think fun.

Don’t live in the Okanagan? Don’t worry we made a list for Metro Vancouver and Vancouver Island too.
