We have roadside parking available. If parking across the road, please use caution when crossing.

Our fields are simply home to our sunflowers so we don't have permanent bathrooms, but we will have porta-potties available on site for your convenience.

Unfortunately, no. Our sunflowers are only in full bloom 7-10 days, so we can not reschedule due to rain. We will be open on Field Day rain or shine!
It actually rained for a short while at our 2022 Field Day and many guests remained in their cars until the rain let up. This sprinkle brought the most beautiful rainbow along with it! Seeing a rainbow shine above a field of over one million sunflowers is an unforgettable sight. The wait was worth it!
-
Unfortunately, no. Our Field Day is open to the public one day only. Each field day requires a lot of preparation, assistance and insurance. We absolutely love having visitors, but our main goal is to produce healthy, sustainable oil. Therefore we are unable to accommodate visits outside of our annual field day. Please follow us on social media and join our email list to be notified about next year's event!
-
We kindly ask that all sunflowers are left in our fields. Each and every sunflower we grow is harvested to make our oil. We ask that all sunflowers stay in the field and do not go home with you, but you will receive a free bottle of Simply Sunflower Oil with your admission fee! Thank you for your cooperation!
-
Yes! Admission includes a free bottle of Simply Sunflower Oil, but we will also have our other sizes available for purchase in our Welcome Tent.
If you plan on purchasing a large quantity, please contact us so we can have designated cases prepared for you.
