What to Expect
The Sunflower Festival offers something for everyone! 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. Enjoy live music, wine, and beer served next to the field, entertainment as well as a variety of craft vendors.
What do we offer that sets us apart from the rest?
- We are dog-friendly! Well-behaved dogs are welcome on a leash, or off leash in the dog park.
- We have a Tap Room with twenty local breweries on tap, wine, and spirits.
- We are open until 9:00 PM on Fridays and Saturdays so you can get that sunset picture!
- We have live music throughout the day at the sunflower field and our beautiful new event space, "The Garage".
- Our locally famous LOBSTER ROLLS will be on the menu!
- Unlimited hayrides that will bring you right to the sunflower field and back.
- A variety of local craft vendors.
- A FAST PASS line for online ticket holders to avoid the lines at the door.
- Petting Zoo, with plenty of adorable goats, chickens, pigs and alpaca to visit.
- A Farm Market with our signature products and other local products.
- The Fun Park with a giant MEGA Slide and Apple Cannons (Fun Park is not open on Friday festival dates).
- Entertainment such as Zach Alexander Magic Shows or Two by Two Animal Haven Exhibits (Not scheduled for Friday festival dates).
Guests are encouraged to bring small gardening shears to cut their sunflowers, as our supply is very limited due to a shortage from our supplier. Shears will be available for rent during the festival on a first come first serve basis.
