Sunflowers 2026

The sunflower field WILL be back for the 2026 season!  

Last year we took a year off so that we could rotate the crops - "farmer speak" for put a different crop in that field so that the soil can regenerate.  And it was a good year to skip sunflowers because as you all know, we had one heck of a drought!  The few rows of sunflowers we did plant at the front, didn't even come up. 

Frequently Asked Questions about the sunflowers:

 

When do they bloom? Normally sunflowers will bloom anytime between mid-July and mid-August. We can never be certain - so please don't ask us to pin down a date. It all depends on Mother Nature - sun, rain, warm temps/cold temps - all out of our hands. 

 

How long does the bloom last for? The blooms look amazing for 2 weeks and then start to fade - although they still look good. As the plant matures and starts making the seeds, the yellow flower starts to droop and die off. This is the natural progression for a sunflower.
