U-Pick Basics
An old-fashioned pleasure
The Facts

Tulip U-Picks are Saturdays from 9:00 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Sundays from 1:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. We will open on March 28th, 2026 and ending in April. (See SHOP for tickets and information.)
Summer U-Pick days vary. If we don't post which days on this page, please call us at 740-602-7687.
U-Pick Costs
Costs vary by flower. Prices are on the Shop page when the season is open.
Lavender, Poppies & Sunflowers
Hours are by appointment. Please call ahead to confirm flowers are available and reserve your time.
Summer U-Picks are from 5:00 - 8:00
Why the evening hours? It's all about the flowers. Some of the best times to pick flowers are in the morning and in the cooler afternoon/evening hours; flowers don't do well if picked in the heat of the day. We are busy with farm chores in the morning, yet save the cooler evening hours for guests. This is also the favorite time for deer to visit the meadow, so if you’re lucky you may get to see some whitetail.
Why not morning hours in the summer? As a working farm we are busy in the mornings. We can give more attention to customers and maintain better safety by having late afternoon and evening hours for the U-Pick.
Our tulip and sunflower area is planted in concentric circles to make it easier to walk through and collect flowers. And it's fun to walk through the labyrinth path.
Join Our Community of
Safety Minded Visitors
Because a farm is a farm and not a playground,
you will need to become part of our safety minded visitors group, and sign a waiver to participate in our U-Pick. The waiver is a simple acknowledgement you understand and accept the inherent risks of being on a farm.
People have different expectations of what it means to be on a farm. Farms are working spaces with all kinds of insects, spiders, bugs, snakes and animals. The ground is often uneven or can have ruts and holes. Farms also have lots of equipment and materials/supplies that need to be handled carefully.
Please be sure to read our
General Farm Rules and
our “B” Rules. This will
help ensure your safety during your visit.
Thank you for being part of our safe community.
