I’m not trying to jinx it, but the weather is actually on our side this Halloween?? Sure, there might be a little rain, but it’s looking way warmer than Chicago usually gives us this time of year. I genuinely can’t remember the last Halloween when I didn’t have to ruin my costume by throwing a jacket over it.

Jacket or no jacket, let’s get into everything going on this Halloween weekend…

GET OUTTA THE CITY & INTO A CORN MAZE 🌽

Get lost in a corn maze, pick a pumpkin that’s way too big for your apartment, then grab something warm and sugary before heading home. Add in apple picking, hayrides, farm animals, and a few haunted attractions, and watch your “quick fall day” turn into a full afternoon.

We pulled together some of the best farms and orchards around Chicago so you can pick the one that fits your level of fall commitment.
