Chadwick Farm has quickly become a must-visit destination for families looking to enjoy some good, old-fashioned fall fun.

And they’ve only been open for two weeks.

Owned and operated by the Chadwick family, this sprawling 100-acre property is more than just a working farm—it’s packed with activities for kids and adults alike.

Hudson Chadwick, along with his wife Alli and his parents, Jeanne and Barney Chadwick, have turned their family-owned farm into a thriving attraction that draws visitors from all over the region.

Chadwick Farm is open from noon to dusk on Fridays and from 9 a.m. to dusk on Saturdays and Sundays.

They held a “soft opening” on the first weekend of the month and helped their official opening last weekend.

Right now, the focus is on fall fun.

“Our biggest emphasis is on the autumn season, with the pumpkin patch being the star of the show,” Barney Chadwick said. “Visitors can look forward to wagon rides, a petting barn, and plenty of photo ops among the pumpkin patch.”

For Hudson Chadwick, the farm’s development into a full-fledged family attraction was the fulfillment of a long-held dream.

“I have a background in summer camps and have always really loved that world,” he said. “Several years ago, when we had our first child, we went to a pumpkin patch. And I said, ‘This is awesome. I want to do this.’ For several years, it just kind of hung out as a little idea in the back of my mind. It was just a seed that was bedded down there.”

When the opportunity arose to expand the farm, Chadwick knew the time had come.

“We said, ‘This is perfect. Let’s go into agritourism.’ So we’ve got the pumpkin patch, and in December, we’ll do all kinds of Winter fun events on the farm. We’re expecting a visit from Santa and even the Grinch. We’re really excited. “Probably the most fun part about it is getting to share this beautiful place with everybody.”

Before diving into Chadwick Farm, the family owned and operated several well-known establishments, including Rafters on the Square, Opas and Rafters on the Water in Sardis.

In addition to the pumpkin patch, there are treehouses with swinging bridges, a small petting barn, giant slides, a barrel train, a haybale maze and a corn pit — which is like a huge sandbox but instead, filled with corn kernels.

There is also a restaurant on site, Nibbles, named after their beloved duck, Nibbles, who folks can see walking around with his chicken lady friends. They serve up smash burgers, grilled cheese, chicken tenders (don’t tell Nibbles) and more.

The cost is $18 per person, which includes access to all the farm activities. Children 3 and under are free. They offer a Fall Family Pass for $149, offering unlimited visits throughout the season.
