In a world where the importance of going green seems to get more and more important every day, learn about what you can do to help out when you visit Vertuccio Farms in Mesa. Established in 1979, this unique farm is home to fall festivals, corn mazes, a spring break camp and Easter egg hunts. Also, field trips and tours are available, but must be booked in advance. Some of the many highlights of the tour include a visit to the Pizza Farm, a straw maze, farm animals and lots more.

It's rare when you can take the kids to a place that is as educational as it is fun. Fortunately, at least one of those types of attractions can still be enjoyed in Mesa when you take the family on a Superstition Farm Tour. The tour is offered on a walk-in basis and lets visitors experience what it is like to work on an actual dairy farm. Not only will you tour the facility and learn about everything that has to be done on a daily basis, you may actually get to do some of the work yourself!

There's classic rock and then there are classics that rock. The performances staged by the Mesa Symphony of the Southwest most definitely fall into the latter category. Formerly known as the Mesa Symphony Orchestra, this group of highly skilled musicians have been impressing audiences with live music entertainment since they first debuted back in 1956. The symphony undertakes a full schedule of performances throughout the year that not only spotlight the work of classical composers like Bach and Mozart, but they also present various concerts designed to appeal to some of the area's younger music lovers. Under the direction of maestro Cal Stewart Kellogg, that tradition is set to continue for many years to come.
