2022 Season Recap:

We planted 5 crops in 2022, and were open August 4th-September 4th. We had food trucks all but the last extended weekend (we added the last weekend dates because of later bloom than expected). We had music under the large tent on select weekend dates. We had over 20 props throughout the field that we moved as the bloom changed. Thank you to all who visited! We plan to be open around August 1-31 next season, but will update as the crop is planted as weather plays a role. 

2021 Season Recap:

We planted 4 crops in 2021, and were open August 1-31st.  We had almost 20 different food trucks visit over the month on weekends primarily. We added live music, a large tent with benches to enjoy music and food. We had over 20 props throughout the field that we moved from crop to crop each week as blooming changed.  It was a fun sunflower season! 

History:

We have grown sunflowers for over 25 years along with many other field crops. The sunflowers are black oil type used for bird seed. We also grow cut flower types in smaller quantities. In recent years, we have had more calls to visit the field for photos and to enjoy. With the increased interest, we created a parking area in the field in 2019 with a self-serve donation box to help with signage and maintenance of the space. Due to increased demand, we began staffing the field in 2020 and offering more amenities for the safety and comfort of visitors. We began an admission charge so we can continue opening the field and add features each year and increase our sunflower acreage! We use our irrigated land to allow a healthy, uniform crop to enjoy.
