Nationwide, farmers commemorate the 75th anniversary of the Peanuts comic by carving its characters in corn mazes.

In the United States and Canada, over 80 farms have honored "Peanuts" creator Charles M. Schulz and his enduring, cherished characters by trimming their hedges.

Peanuts Worldwide has partnered with corn maze farmers to create "Peanuts"-themed attractions, according to the Associated Press.

In Oct. 1950, Schulz launched his first strip, which appeared in seven newspapers across the country, at the age of 27.

Some well-known figures in the "Peanuts" franchise are Charlie Brown, Snoopy, Lucy, Linus, and Peppermint Patty.

The "Peanuts" comic strip was syndicated in over 2,600 newspapers worldwide by Dec. 1999, with observational, wry, sarcastic, nostalgic, bittersweet, and silly characteristics used by the Schulz Museum to describe the creation.

Jill Schulz, an actress and daughter of Charles M. Shulz, stated through the AP that the farmers' commitment to her father and his work preserves his "legacy."

Although she joked about struggling to keep houseplants alive, she respected the farmers for their commitment to their work.

Jill Schulz said she respected the farmers for their hard work and dedication to the craft.

Each farm had a unique maze designed specifically for it, ranging in size from 1.5 to 20 acres, featuring mostly corn and sunflowers.

The MAiZE Inc. company custom-created each maze.

According to the AP, others have done it before, including those dedicated to presidential candidates, Oprah Winfrey, and John Wayne.

The 75th anniversary of the first "Peanuts" strip appearance is a significant milestone in Schulz's esteemed career.

In the 1940s and 1950s, newspapers promoted minimalism, leading Schulz to change his approach to full-page comics.

The Schulz Museum states on its website that newspaper editors in the late 1940s and 50s promoted a post-war minimalist model, encouraging their cartoonists to reduce strip size, simplify pen strokes, and use daily gags and cerebral humor to appeal to an increasingly educated audience.

The "Peanuts" phenomenon has expanded to include books, animated TV specials, theme parks, and a Broadway musical.

Throughout his career, Schulz was recognized with numerous accolades, including Emmy Awards for his animated TV shows.

The U.S. government recognized him, NASA named spacecraft after his characters, and a concert performance at Carnegie Hall was inspired by him, according to the museum website.

In February 2000, Schulz retired from his job in Santa Rosa, California, just a month before his passing.
