Plan a Fall Family Trip from Walnut to Visit Us

Looking for fall family activities near Walnut? You barely have to leave home. Selmi's is about 20 miles north, a straight shot up IL-40, close enough that a Saturday here is easy and familiar enough that plenty of Walnut families already call it their fall tradition. Neighbors from Tampico, Deer Grove, Manlius, and Sheffield make the short drive too.

We're a family farm, four generations in, and we do fall the old way. Come up IL-40 once, and an afternoon here, the corn maze, the pumpkin patch, the orchard, and everything in between, has a way of becoming the thing your family does every October.

It's the kind of fall day your kids will still be talking about years from now.
