NFL Draft: Wisconsin Farms Join the Fun

In an exciting blend of sports and agriculture, the 2025 Draft Local Organizing Committee is eager to announce a collaborative effort with family farms across Wisconsin to celebrate the upcoming 2025 Draft, scheduled for April 24-26, 2025, in Green Bay. 

This partnership aims to spotlight Wisconsin’s rich agricultural history while building anticipation for the biggest event in our state yet.

The Draft Local Organizing Committee is joining forces with Wisconsin farms to create special Draft-themed corn mazes across the state. These unique attractions will be available to the public this fall, offering a festive and engaging way to celebrate both football and farming.

“We’re thrilled to see the 2025 Draft create energy and anticipation not only in Green Bay but throughout Wisconsin, and this collaboration with family farms adds a unique local touch to the celebration,” said Discover Green Bay President and CEO, Brad Toll.

The 2025 Draft is anticipated to draw over 250,000 fans, generating an estimated economic boost of $20 million for Brown County and $94 million across the state. 

Each maze will feature a distinctive design celebrating the 2025 Draft, and farms will host additional activities and programming throughout the season.
