Description

9 Day Festival Dedicated to Our Fields of Sunflowers and Make-A-Wish NH Our Sunflower Festival is a special event put on every summer to celebrate our beautiful sunflower fields. Our sunflowers are harvested every fall to press the seeds into culinary oil, however, they are a sight to behold while they are blooming. Oilseed sunflowers are not like ornamental sunflower varieties that bloom for 3 weeks or more. Oilseed sunflowers bloom and begin to turn their heads to start drying their seed after only about 12 days. This means that we have a limited window to enjoy them in. This window is when we hold our Sunflower Festival; when they are the most beautiful. It is also why there is a firm end date to our festival. Walk through a sea of gold as you stop for the perfect picture among our fields of sunflowers! Hire a professional photographer to take your senior, engagement, or maternity photos! On the weekends enjoy live music under our event tent and our artisan craft fair. Select food vendors on site every day. If you prefer a smaller crowd, visit on the weekdays. In 2016, we partnered with Make-A-Wish NH as a way to give back to our local community. At the end of the sunflower festival, we donate 10% of admissions. In 2017, we were thrilled to find out that we were able to fulfill the whole cost of a wish for a very deserving little girl. In 2018, we doubled our donation fulfilling two wishes! Over the last six years, we have been able to donate over $65,000. We know this would not have been possible without all of you that come to enjoy the sunflowers with us. Thank you for your generosity to our farm and Make-A-Wish NH. Tickets are good for a single day admission.
