Your support means the world to us and is what makes our farm a special place for families and friends to gather and create unforgettable memories.
We’ve heard laughter echo through our pumpkin patches, families navigating our corn mazes, and friends savoring our delicious seasonal treats. It has been a joy to watch children’s eyes light up as they explore the farm and discover all the fun activities we have to offer!
Thank you for your loyalty and for choosing to celebrate this beautiful season with us. We are honored to be a part of your fall traditions, and we look forward to welcoming you back for many more seasons of fun, family, and festivities at Rader Family Farms.
Here’s to harvesting more memories together! Until next year, enjoy the beauty of fall and all it has to offer! 🍁🌾
🎉 A huge THANK YOU to everyone who joined us yesterday for the 2nd Annual Pumpkin Smash! 🎃 We had a smashing good time, and it wouldn’t have been possible without the support from the University of Illinois Extension Livingston-McLean and Woodford County, as well as our amazing sponsors from the Town of Normal and ISU Farm.
If you missed out on the fun, don’t worry! You can still recycle your pumpkins every day this November at ISU Sustainability. Let’s keep our community green and festive! 🌍✨
