STERLING, Mass. — An investigation is underway after a “suspicious” fire damaged the iconic Mega Maze at Davis Farmland in Sterling, authorities said.

The fire at the beloved family entertainment farm broke out early Tuesday burning.

There were no injuries reported in the fire but part of the maze was destroyed.

“We were very fortunate that there were no casualties - human or animal. We are now putting our focus on rebuilding what was burned down and preparing for Davis Farmland’s Mega Maze to open in mid-September,” the farm said. “Davis Farmland’s Discovery Farm, including all the critters are safe and sound.”

The Discovery Farm will remain open daily from 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. throughout the summer while the rebuilding takes place ahead of the fall season.
