MILL HALL -- The sunflower maze has returned along Nittany Valley Drive in Mill Hall.
"It is A-Mazing that we are celebrating our 5th year of our Sunflower Maze hosted by Dotterer Dairy," a release from the business aid.
The maze is now open through Aug. 16 beside the Farmer's Dottere /64 Beer store located along route 64, 6102 Nittany Valley Drive, Mill Hall. The theme this year honors our United States 250th Birthday!
The maze is open every day for the next two weeks from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. The last admission into the maze will be 7:30 p.m. You can purchase your tickets at the maze for $7 a person and children 3 years old and younger are free.
"We are excited to honor and donate a portion of our proceeds to our local Veterans Affairs," the release said. "Come out and enjoy the beautiful sunflowers and the many photo opportunities throughout the maze for those special occasions such as senior pictures, engagement pictures, baby pictures, family pictures, etc."
Also don't forget the lookout deck that allows you to climb above the field of flowers for a spectacular view of the 18-plus acres.
"We will have a photographer on hand in which you can make an appointment. Contact Audrey's Fluttering Shutters," the release said.
If you want to be creative and like to arrange flowers, Cortney Dotterer will be hosting a sunflower bouquet making class on Saturday, Aug. 8, from 11 a.m.-1 p.m., for $50. Pre-registration is required at www.thefarmersdotterer.com.
Glow Night through the maze has been very popular the last two years and is planned for Friday, Aug. 14, from 9-11 p.m., with a rain-date on Saturday, Aug. 15. The price of a ticket is $10 a person and ages 3 and under are free. The ticket includes glow sticks and other glow accessories -- but feel free to bring your own. If you can find your way through the maze, a special treat of s'mores will be waiting for you.
The event will also feature food vendors, games and sunflower T-shirts for sale along with home-grown popcorn and sweet corn.
