Prioritizing mental health certainly isn’t corny — in fact, it can be lifesaving.

This year, Bella Organic Farm (BOF) chose to highlight Suicide Prevention Awareness Month by designing a 7-acre corn maze with a message of hope for those who are struggling. By dialing or texting 988, anyone can receive 24-hour, confidential support.

BOF will provide mental health resources on the back of its corn maze maps, and it also plans to donate a portion of the proceeds to a nonprofit (exactly who is yet to be decided).

You can learn more about how the intricate maze was made and plan your own trip.
