About The Hayride
Nothing quite pulls autumn into sharp focus like a hayride, the wagon sways, the tractor idles ahead, and the fields roll by in shades of amber and rust. Straw bales stack up like rough-hewn furniture, and the scent of dried cornstalk drifts across the cool evening air. Out past the corn maze, where the stubble rows catch the last of the twilight, lanterns flicker to life and the season feels utterly, unhurriedly yours.
