If you haven’t heard of Taylor Swift by now, you might be living under a rock. Not only has she been incredibly popular because of her chart-topping music, but her new relationship with NFL star Travis Kelce has put her even more in the spotlight.
Swift first gained fame in the early 2000s with her country music, capturing the hearts of fans with her heartfelt lyrics and soulful tunes. Today, however, she is best known for her evolution into a pop music icon, delivering hits that dominate the airwaves.
Taylor Swift’s reach extends far beyond just her music. Her record-breaking Eras tour has cemented her status as a cultural phenomenon, drawing in fans from all walks of life.
Even those who wouldn’t consider themselves die-hard Swifties (the nickname for her dedicated fanbase) can’t help but find her influence inspiring and her presence entertaining.
Among her devoted fans, a deep admiration for Swift has inspired some truly unique tributes. Two farms, one in Maryland and the other in Ohio, have taken their admiration to the next level by creating elaborate corn mazes in her likeness.
These massive tributes are both creative and impressive, and they stand as the latest example of the influence Swift has on her fans.
These Taylor Swift-inspired corn mazes are a fun, playful nod to her widespread appeal. Whether you’re a longtime fan or simply someone who appreciates her cultural impact, these corn mazes are a fascinating tribute to one of the biggest pop stars of our time.
This corn maze is a true showcase of someone’s talent with how detailed and interesting it is.
Duke Wheeler, manager and owner of Wheeler Farms, which is located in Whitehouse, Ohio has been in the corn maze business for twenty years. This farm in particular is usually a Christmas tree farm, but the staff started creating mazes to fill up the time leading up to winter.
"You work hard in the winter, [and then] you don't have much work. So we got into a facility called the ‘Butterfly House,’ where we import butterflies all over the world, and then from there, we got a cornfield that's 16 acres, and we started having mazes," Wheeler said.

The Wheeler Farm will dedicate their corn mazes to whoever is popular during that year, and this year, Taylor Swift made the cut. Wheeler actually got advice from his daughter and grandchildren to draw Taylor Swift.
“She’s real special,” Wheeler said.
“We had an artist draw up [the design] first, and then we used GP coordinates to try to create the paths in the pictures, and that's it. We cut the corn. We've cut the plants a couple of times in the last two months so that it's not too high. You know, people like walking in cornstalks."

He said that because of the heightened interest, he would be amping it up a notch next year and make sure that it’s “Unbelievable.”

In Maryland, Carol Paul, owner of Maryland Corn Maze was also inspired by Taylor Swift for their maze design. It was her son’s friend that proposed the idea of using Taylor Swift in the design.
"I was really worried at first… [my daughter-in-law] said, 'She's the most wholesome thing out there,' so I started following it, and I was like, 'I think it's true. There's nothing bad out there about her.”

These corn mazes are so interesting and it’s always fun to see what kind of designs can be used to do corn mazes. We can’t wait to see what they do next year because they definitely stole the show this year.
