Went with a bunch of friends and their kids to Livesay Orchards in Porter over fall break. They are best known for their peaches, but they have a hayride to the pumpkin patch and you can pick apples for $.70 a pound. Accross the street they have a hay maze and some other activities for the kids. My 20 month old was drug kicking and screaming from the kiddie pool filled with dried corn kernels ala sandbox. We brought a picnic lunch and had fun, fun, fun.
