About Ridenour Acres
Ridenour Acres is a seasonal fall farm on East 20 North outside Angola, in the lake country of Steuben County in Indiana's northeast corner. Each autumn the family opens its fields for a corn maze, pumpkins and mums, food trucks, and a full calendar of weekend events, and it runs a stage on the property for live music.
The 2026 season runs from September 19 through November 1. The farm is open Saturdays from noon to 9 p.m. and Sundays from noon to 6 p.m., and Friday evenings from 6 to 9 p.m. starting September 25. Evening hours mean you can walk the maze after dark: the farm's family Glow Night, billed as The Glowdown, pairs the maze under the stars with a DJ.
General admission in 2026 is $13 for everyone age 3 and up and covers entry and the farm's activities. A few things cost extra: pumpkins, mums, food truck meals and drinks, and the corn cannon, which gives two shots for $1. The farm also hosts birthday parties and a craft show it calls Crafts in the Country. On select fall Friday and Saturday nights, Corn Maze and Cocktails brings live bands, food trucks and a cash bar; most of those nights are 21 and over, so check each date before bringing kids.
For a lavender stop, Bloomfield Schoolhouse Lavender Farm & Apothecary is in LaGrange, roughly 35 minutes west. Its handcrafted lavender goods are sold at a shop in downtown LaGrange, which makes an easy afternoon stop before or after an evening in the maze.
