New for 2006
We are so excited about our new addition to our farm. This year we've added the experience of a corn maze. The corn has been planted and has started to sprout. The maze is starting to take shape. Meander through the rows of corn, careful not to get caught up in all the twists and turns. Our corn maze will be available starting in August.
Evening Wagon Rides and Bonfire Parties
July through September
Wednesdays and Saturdays from July to September are particularly special with Evening Wagon Rides and Bonfire Parties. As the sun sets over the farm fun starts with a tractor-pulled wagon ride, stopping at bear caves to check out these unique winter bedrooms. The bonfire party then begins, with a 20- foot bonfire, interactive music and original New England stories. The evening concludes under the stars, roasting marshmallows Adams Farm style and enjoying s' mores with homemade fudge. Reservations required.

Former Harry's Supermarket Under Construction for Restaurant
Late last month, the Conservation Commission greenlit some tree pruning on the property. New windows and a new door can be seen in the front of the building.
"It's a substantial renovation that's currently underway here," Brent White of White Engineering said, speaking on behalf of the applicant and owner, Huajie Zhu.
A fire gutted the longtime Wahconah Street supermarket in 2023, and the following year, Zhu purchased the property for $460,000 two years ago to build a restaurant with hibachi in the existing footprint of the more than 100-year-old building.
White explained that the project has been ongoing for over a year, and the Community Development Board granted the property a waiver to reduce the minimum required number of parking spaces so that additional spaces aren't needed.
He noted that, looking at the site plan, there is very little room to do so. A mirror will be installed near the sharp turn on Bel Air Avenue to alleviate traffic concerns.
Pruning will be done on trees in the southeast corner of the existing paved parking lot, as a number of branches are hanging over. The new owners also intend to patch, sealcoat, and re-stripe the parking lot.
A fire tore through the building less than an hour after the supermarket closed for the day three years ago. An automatic sprinkler system is required for the new use.
