Oct 15, 2012, 2:29 PM

Denver Downs Farm’s 2012 Corn Maze and Giant Pumpkin Patch will host Clemson Day at the Maze on Sun., Oct. 21. On that day, $2 of each ticket purchased by a Clemson alumnus, student or faculty member will be donated to the Clemson Fund.
A favorite regional event year after year, the 2012 Denver Downs Corn Maze was featured during the Oct. 6 Clemson-GA Tech football game broadcast live on ESPN. The annual family fall festival celebrates South Carolina’s farming history and Denver Downs Farm’s designation as a Century Farm. Sponsored by The Greenville Hospital System University Medical Center, the 2012 Corn Maze & Giant Pumpkin Patch celebrates and commemorates the GHS centennial with the hospital system's logo cut into the center of the 10-acre maze.
In addition to the Corn Maze & Giant Pumpkin Patch, this year's lineup of activities includes all-time favorites like cornball volley, corn cannon, goat walk, children's zip-line, hayrides and bonfires. New for 2012 is a Giant Jumping Pillow. During Clemson Day at the Maze, the Clemson Tiger will make a special appearance at 3 p.m.

Denver Downs Farm is a South Carolina Century Farm owned and operated by the Garrison family of Anderson County SC since 1869. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, Denver Downs was established as a cotton farm, transitioned to a dairy farm, and today is a working farm devoted to agri-tourism. The annual Corn Maze & Giant Pumpkin Patch is an opportunity to share the rich heritage of farming and the importance agriculture plays in our everyday lives, organizers say.
