Petting Zoo, Pumpkins & Corn Pit — Manhattan’s Crosswind Farms Has It All
The family-owned Manhattan farm's animals are a hit with kids.

MANHATTAN, IL — Manhattan’s own Crosswind Farms is popular enough in the summer months but it’s a can’t miss destination come autumn.
Guests at the family-owned farm can pick their own strawberries, blackberries, raspberries, black raspberries and sweet cherries in the summer. The fall boasts pumpkins and honey, and hopefully apples next year. Not to mention the popular corn pit and petting zoo.
Crosswind Farms is at 14435 W. Manhattan-Monee Road. Check the farm’s Facebook page for updated picking dates and times.
