Basic Directions: Below are basic directions to get to the Farm
Crawl area from Des Moines and points north or from points south.
Once near the Farm Crawl "circle" follow our road side signage.
Further directions to each farm available at every farm.

Interactive map: We have
found that several automated mapping programs such as MapQuest, Yahoo
Local Maps, and Microsoft MapPoint don't accurately locate all of
the Farm Crawl farms nor provide the most favorable routes between the
farms. Using the Goggle Maps program we have created our own map
and specific directions from one farm to another. |
Directions from Des Moines and points north: Take Hwy 5
south past Pleasantville to a four-way stop where Hwy 5, Hwy 92, and
S-45 meet, then:
Option # 1: Go straight onto S-45 southbound. In
9 miles, just north of Melcher-Dallas as the speed limit reduces to 45
MPH, look for Farm Crawl signs. Turn right (west) for Coyote Run Farm or
turn left (east) for Reichert's Dairy.
Option #2: Turn left
(east) to follow Hwy 5 south / Hwy 92 east to Knoxville. Take the Hwy 14
exit at Knoxville. At Hwy 14 turn right (south). In four miles
you'll see Farm Crawl signs for Reichert's Dairy Air or in five miles
you'll see Farm Crawl signs for Dan-D Farms/Corn Maze.
Directions from points south: At Chariton take Hwy 14
north. In about 14 miles you'll see Farm Crawl signs for Pierce's
Pumpkin Patch and Blue Gate Farm. In about 16 miles you'll see
signs for Dan-D Farms/Corn Maze.
