Historic Round Barn’s 23rd Annual Old Fashioned Corn Fest

The Historic Round Barn’s 23rd Annual Old Fashioned Corn Fest continues a beloved Adams County tradition, blending farm-fresh flavor with a lively, down-home atmosphere just eight miles west of Gettysburg. Set beside the striking 1914 round barn—one of only a few of its kind still standing—the event unfolds amid rolling foothills and orchard-lined landscapes that capture the essence of late summer in south-central Pennsylvania.

Guests are drawn in by the aroma of roasted sweet corn, grown on site and cooked over an apple wood fire, alongside pulled pork made from a closely held family recipe, tender chicken, cornbread, and corn fritters. Seasonal favorites like grilled peach sundaes, peach milkshakes, and classic whoopie pies add a sweet finish, while live music, games, and activities create an easygoing, family-friendly setting that invites visitors to linger. With food starting at 11:30 a.m., entertainment at noon, and no tickets required, Corn Fest offers a rain-or-shine celebration of local agriculture, community, and time-honored tradition that keeps guests coming back year after year.
