U-Cut Flowers
We're excited to welcome you to our u-cut flower field of over 20,000 plants! From Amaranth to Zinnias and many other varieties, you'll find something you love. Dahlias and sunflowers are seasonal favorites! Enjoy abundant pollinators as you explore over one acre of cut flowers.
For $12, you can fill a quart jar with any flowers you like. We provide the jars and the scissors. If you do bring your own scissors please sanitize them before cutting in our field. Field and farm rules are listed below and we will have suggestions for cutting flowers listed in the farm stand. Never cut flowers before? You'll be just fine! You can review some tips below.
We do accept recycled jars and offer a free packet of flower food for jars that are left at the farm stand to be recycled.
Buckets for picking flowers are available for $50. This is the best option if you have your own vessels that you plan to use. We calculate that you can fit about 8-9 u-cut jars worth of flowers in the bucket. The bucket is 2 gallons in size. You can keep the bucket, there is not deposit on it.
If you're visiting the cut flower field only for professional photography the admission fee is $2 per person (children age 5 and under are free).

Sunflower Trail
Gorgeous large black oil sunflowers abound in the sunflower trail. Enjoy some time on the trail and stop to take some pictures. The trail admittance is $5 (children age 5 and under are free). We have set up a variety of props near and in the sunflowers for some unique picture opportunities, but don't forget to stop and enjoy the beauty of the sunflower field.
The field is a field- we’ve tried to level the trail as much as possible but you may encounter some uneven parts. Honey bees and other pollinators will be in the field- an important part of a sunflower’s life cycle. Please be aware of this. If you don’t bother them they won’t bother you.
Sunflowers are not available to cut in the sunflower trail this year. Sunflowers are available in our u-cut field or for sale in the farm stand. Please do not knock sunflowers over and respect the boundaries of the trail. Thanks for helping us preserve the field for all to enjoy!
Sunflowers are planted in different stages to try and have blooms available for a long period of time. Check our Facebook page for flower updates or feel free to contact us via Facebook messenger. You may also text 810-247-3680 with questions.

field and farm Rules
Thank you for following the rules to make our farm safe and welcoming for all. Photographers, please make sure your clients are aware of the farm rules.
- Please be respectful of the flowers and plants when visiting the fields.
- Sorry, pets are not allowed. We're a working farm with livestock.
- No drone photography will be allowed.
- Please respect the props in the fields. Do not sit on the top of or hoods of the vehicles in the fields. Do not move props without consulting someone working at the farm. Your own props, that can be easily carried into the field, are welcome.
- We're open to 8pm days the farm stand is operating. We understand that sometimes the best time for pictures is in the evening. We will accommodate those that wish to stay after 8pm, however, please arrive by 8pm to enter the farm. You must leave the fields by dark.
- Please respect the boundaries of the u-cut field and the sunflower fields.
- Everyone entering the sunflower field will need to pay admission.
Professional Photography
Photographers will need to make arrangements to pay admission for their clients. Photographers will also be asked to pay the admittance fee (per person per day). We will plant different fields at different times so that we have several weeks of blooms. We plant to have our first field in full bloom mid-July and additional fields to continue into mid-September.
The u-cut flower field will have some great photo opportunities as well. For professional photography in both the sunflower field and the u-cut flower field the admission is $7 per person. You can also include a u-cut jar for your clients to pick flowers for $12. This will provide flowers that can be used for photography throughout the flower fields.
Thanks for the interest and let us know if you have additional questions! You can send us a message on Facebook messenger or text Joe at 810-247-3680.
