Schulz. “As we prepare to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown, it’s only fitting that we should find a tribute that’s both joyful and visually compelling, just as my father’s characters have been for more than 65 years.” “We’re thrilled to work with Peanuts Worldwide and The MAiZE, Inc. as we customize our corn maze to celebrate It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown,” said Kevin Trunnell, co-owner of Trunnell’s Farm Market. “Corn mazes are all about providing a fun and interactive experience for our visitors—even the adults feel like kids again! And that’s exactly what Peanuts does: Aren’t we all kids again when we see and Charlie Brown? This is the perfect match of holiday traditions.” “It’s been a huge pleasure for us to collaborate with Peanuts Worldwide to design our unique, custom corn maze,” said co-owner Julie Trunnell. “We’re all fans of Peanuts and the Great Pumpkin, and we’re delighted to honor the 50th Anniversary by having the Great Pumpkin Maze to share with all our guests this season.
