Flowers & Photography

The Flower Pickin’ Patch

We planted 3 flower patches in hopes that our bloom time will be extended through the first freeze, hopefully after Halloween! We could very well have blooms through the whole season which ends November 16th!!!!

How it works!
Stop by the Flower Market (tent), grab some scissors, cut & trim your own flowers, and purchase them & a vase at the register!
All sunflowers are $2.00 each!
At the Flower Pickin’ Patch, CASH is preferred however,
credit and debit cards are accepted (Minimum of $5.00 on all card charges)

Photography Opportunities at the Farm

We welcome amateur and professional photographers and their clients during our Fall Corn Maze event. Everyone in the group is required to pay Farm Admission. One professional photographer in your group will receive free admission when you arrive.

During the off season, we do not allow any photographers at the farm.

Sorry …

We don’t allow props to be brought to the farm!
Our Flower Patch is exclusively for the use of the Farm’s personal photographer(s).
No public area may be blocked or impeded to our regular customers during photo shoots.
Sorry, no doggies allowed unless they are a Registered Service Animal (with proof) OR on our reserved Doggy Dayz!
