New Maze Opens At Cedar Meadow Farm

Steve Groff at Cedar Meadow Farm, 535 Drytown Road, Holtwood, has created a maze for families to explore in a four-acre field of fiber hemp.

The maze is new in 2021. The creative design is shaped like Grizbot, the logo character of Cedar Meadow Farm. Grizbot is the online persona of Grizzly, Groff's real-life farm dog and a significant part of the branding for Cedar Meadow Farm.

The maze is divided into two parts. Grizbot's head is cut into fiber hemp that is 7 to 10 feet tall, with a complex shape for older youths and adults to enjoy. Grizbot's body is designed for smaller children, with shorter hemp and wider, easier paths. More than a dozen learning stations and activities are scattered throughout the maze.

Along with exploring the maze, visitors will be able to pick their own pumpkins, squash and gourds, as well as sunflowers, that will be grown around the maze.

Cedar Meadow Farm has decades of history and innovation in the area of regenerative agriculture. Groff, known widely as the Cover Crop Coach, is a farmer, international speaker and consultant. He recently published a book, "The Future-Proof Farm: Changing Mindsets in a Changing World," which advocates for the use of cover crops, no-till farming and soil health. The soil on Groff's 200-acre, family-owned southern Lancaster County farm has not been tilled in more than 30 years. Groff's message of soil health is echoed in the new Netflix documentary "Kiss the Ground," narrated by Woody Harrelson.

Cedar Meadow Farm has produced and distributed nutrient-dense food to places like Blue Apron, Giant, Trader Joe's and Whole Foods for years.

The new hemp maze experience, launched under the brand Cedar Meadow Adventures, opened on Labor Day weekend and will continue through October.

Additional information is also available by calling Groff at 717-575-6778.
