WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW:

The wildflower field full of gorgeous Cosmos and Zinnias is open from July to mid September.

  • Private “pick parties” can also be arranged.

  • We accept cash, Venmo, or credit card.

  • We only offer one size — $10. Pick a bucket and fill it up.

  • We also offer vases, wine, and light bites for sale

  • While picking your own flowers, cut stems a moderate length (12-18 inches is ideal). We want to be mindful of the plants buds but also cut enough stem length to allow for good vase life.

  • Be considerate of “overstuffing”… your vessel must be able to stand on its own after your pick or you will be up-charged for extra stems.

  • Everything you cut must go into your vessel. Please no “stashing” unwanted stems in the field.

  • Brown Kraft paper is available if you plan to share your bouquet.

  • Display-worthy vases and vessels are available for sale.

  • The wildflower field is open to the public only on designated u-pick days or by appointment. If you are a photographer looking to use our fields please message us. We’ll make an appointment.

    WHAT YOU NEED

  • You can bring your own bucket or container to transport your flowers home… but while picking we ask that you use our vessels.

  • Appropriate footwear and clothing — it is a farm, after all.

  • For your comfort, you may want to bring sun protection, water bottles, a snack, etc. Most folks hang around for an hour or so.

  • This is a working farm, not a manicured park. The ground is rough or uneven in spots. You may even encounter all-natural mud! We will do our best to meet any needs you may have, just give us a heads up.

    WHAT YOU DON’T NEED

  • No glass allowed in the field.

  • Please do not bring your pets. If you have a service dog, please call ahead to alert us.

  • Of course, children are welcome. But the flower field isn’t a playground. It is a working farm. Children under 12 must have an adult carry clippers for them.
