The corn is as high as an elephant’s eye,
And it looks like it’s climbing clear up to the sky…
And that would be at Liberty Mills Farm in Somerset, the site of Virginia’s premiere corn maize.
Liberty Farms is always a fun, fall road trip, especially if you have a child or two to take along. They offer not only a challenging maize to navigate, they have hay rides and pumpkin pickings and lots of fun things for the family.
