Find Your Way Out Of This 10-Acre Barbie-Themed Corn Maze This Fall

New Jersey’s Happy Day Farm just announced their 2023 corn maze and let’s just say, this Barbie farms! That’s right, Happy Days will be what you could call Barbie’s Dream Farmhouse for the season. The 10-acre corn maze will be cut into the shape of power duo, Barbie and Ken, all fall long.

Each year the corn maze is complete with a new design, three miles of pathways and a lookout bridge. There are typically two paths to choose between: a shorter route (10-20 min) and a more challenging route (45-60 min).

And though the maze won’t open until September 9, the farm has already turned into a pink paradise while sunflowers, zinnias, lavender & blueberries are still in season.

Walk down Barbie Way and find endless fields of lavender, relax on bright pink furniture in the middle of a flower garden, step inside the pink phone booth, and take a photo on the pink tractor. Plus, their adored pumpkin village has been transformed into a House of Flowers pink paradise.

Current admission is $25 per person. This grants visitors access to all fields including blueberries, lavender, sunflowers, flower house & zinnias.

Once the fall season begins, activities beyond the Barbie corn maze include a bee barn, bubble cart, fun slide, giant checkers, hay maze, pig races, tug-o-war, tractor rides and more.

If you get hungry from all of the fall fun, you can fill up on cheese steaks, fries, hamburgers, hotdogs, chicken tenders, gyros, zeppoles, fried oreos, apple fritters, funnel cakes, and fresh squeezed lemonade at the food concessions.

NYC Rents Have Once Again Broken Records, But They May Have Hit Their Peak

NYC rent is often a topic of discussion, but when they continue to soar to new heights it’s no wonder why. As New Yorkers we’re pretty good at laughing at our pain, but, at this point, things are getting out of hand.

According to CNBC, the average Manhattan rent just hit a new record of a whopping $5,588 a month–a 9% increase over the last year and a 30% increase compared to 2019 based on data from Miller Samuel and Douglas Elliman.

What’s worse is that this is the fourth time in five months Manhattan has hit a record.

Even median rent prices and prices per square foot have hit new records, coming in at $4,400 and $84.74 per month respectively.


And according to Commercial Observer, Queens and Brooklyn are also reaching peak highs, with rents in those boroughs increasing 17% and 12% year-over-year respectively.

The soaring rents are reportedly due to higher interest rates and low supply, and CNBC reports that Jonathan Miller, CEO of appraisal and research firm Miller Samuel, added that August is typically the peak rental month as families move before the start of the school year.

In other words, we could be looking at a whole other month of breaking records.

And the rising rent prices aren’t discriminating on unit size–rent has gone up 19% for studio apartments while three-bedroom rent prices are up over 36%. Even rent-stabilized apartments are facing rent increases.


The good news is, there may potentially be a light at the end of the tunnel.

According to Commercial Observer, Jonathan Miller from Miller Samuel stated “Leasing activity is declining because I think we’re reaching some kind of affordability threshold. Landlords are pushing prices higher and people are not accepting them.”

So though rents are the highest they’ve been since 2008, we’re reaching a rent ceiling so to speak, and though Miller explains that doesn’t necessarily mean that rents will go down, the “drop in leasing activity means we’re topping out.”

So we can only cross our fingers that at some point NYC rent prices start to decline and we can stop worrying about whether or not buying a slice of pizza will make us go bankrupt.
