Sunflower Festival

ABOUT sunflower Festival

The Sunflower fields are in bloom NOW, starting September 6th! Don’t miss them! We expect blooms through September 22(ish)! 

Located in the heart of Maryland, we’ve planted acres of sunflowers in our fields to showcase thousands of beautiful blooms and local charm! It’s a family-friendly event, combining sunflower picking with an epic photography opportunity near DC, Baltimore and Frederick, MD. Whether you’re a nature enthusiast, a photography lover, or simply looking for a fun day out with the family, the Sunflower Festival promises something for everyone.

We encourage sunflower selfies so bring your cameras! Spend the day wandering the fields and enjoying all the beauty that our Sunflower Festival has to offer. Take a walk through the sunflower paths and take pictures with our photo props: Boho swing, piano, Farmall tractor, vintage bathtub and NEW props in 2024!

As you explore the field, guests have the chance to engage in a hands-on experience by cutting and creating their very own bouquet of sunflowers. We provide pruners, bags and water. Sunflower buckets and packages are available in addition to blooms.
