see all dates
Suggested Ages: All, Adult Friendly
Take a hayride up to a breathtaking five-acre rolling field with about 100,000 sunflowers in a variety of sizes and colors. Take your time cutting sunflowers and taking pictures in one of the most photographed spots in the Hudson Valley. Two sunflowers included with admission; additional sunflowers are $3/stem.
Check out a new mega slide, as well as a petting zoo, entertainment and wooden ship playground in the new Fun Park for kids. The Slip n’ Slide will be running (weather permitting), so bring a towel.
Enjoy live music, wine and beer served next to the field, entertainment as well as a variety of craft vendors.
Well behaved dogs are welcome on a leash, or off leash in the dog park.
Guests are encouraged to bring their own small gardening shears to cut their sunflowers, as the farm’s supply is very limited. Shears will be available for rent during the festival on a first come first serve basis.
