We’re honored to help celebrate the 75th anniversary events commemorating Charles Schulz and Peanuts.”
“After the tremendous success of our 2016 collaboration, when millions of visitors in communities around the world visited the Peanuts-themed corn mazes, it’s a privilege and a delight to once again partner with Peanuts Worldwide in honor of their 75 years,” says founder of The MAiZE, Brett Herbst. “We salute the genius of Charles Schulz and couldn’t be happier to celebrate this milestone by bringing families together to create new and lasting memories.” For more information about visiting a Peanuts MAiZE, visit www.portlandmaize.com
