Below are the U-Pick orchards and farms for sunflowers that we know of in this area. Not all areas of any state, nor even every state, have sunflowers orchards that are open to the public. If you know of any others, please tell us using the add a farm form!
Sunflowers are a mid-to late summer crop. They need warm soil and full sun. In most areas, expect sungflowers to be available starting in June, and sometimes continuing into August. It really depends on when the farmer plants them, the variety and local weather conditions. Farms that offer U-pick or pick-your-own sunflowers are becoming more common.
