Wickham Farms is a family owned and operated farm in Penfield, New York, just 10 minutes from Rochester. In addition to growing fruits and vegetables for the local community, this farm holds several events each year, including a Fall Harvest Festival and Lavender Days, but perhaps its most popular event is its yearly Sunflower Spectacular Festival in August. If you love sunflowers, then you'll love August at Wickham Farms!
Wickham Farms is a wonderland full of sunflowers every August.
These flowers grow tall and bloom big! When you attend the Sunflower Spectacular, you'll be surrounded. There are sunflowers everywhere you look!
Wickham Farms plants its sunflower field over a period of ten weeks in the spring so that there are blooms throughout the entire month of August. It truly is spectacular.
You'll find 30 different varieties of sunflowers here. Chances are that you'll encounter some that you've never even seen before.
No matter what time of day you decide to go, you'll be amazed by the beauty of these flowers.
You'll probably want to take some home with you. The farm creates beautiful arrangements for purchase.
You can also pick your own! Sunflower picking is encouraged during the Sunflower Spectacular. You choose and buy a vessel from the farm, and then you can head out into the field to collect flowers to bring home.
Everyone looks great with a sunflower backdrop. Wickham Farms offers many photo areas throughout the farm for you to take photos and portraits.
This hanging swing is another of their many photo areas.
The farm also offers yoga among the sunflowers during this sunflower festival.
Snacks and beverages are also available for sale. Choose a day and come and relax by the sunflowers for a while. The Barnyard is open too, so bring your kids. There are plenty of games, activities, and farm animals to keep them busy!
