Lily Festival 2009

Our second Annual lily festival was a success, over 1300 people visited the farm over the weekend during 30+ degree temps on saturday and sunday, then a high of 15 degrees on monday. Thank you to everyone who venture out to the farm to celebrate the beauty of our rural setting.

Nearly 200 vases of flowers were picked over the three days of the festival and over 600 people ventured into, and found their way through our mazes. We are still looking for the Anderson Family, but hope they are feeding off the sunflower seeds at the moment.

For those who were not able to make it out, the farm will be open 6 days a week in August, Closed on Tuesdays, 11-7 every other day of the week except Sundays when we close at 5pm
Every day that we are open there is a concession, play area, farm animals, picnic area and a large collection of sunflower, corn, rope, bale, patio, arrow & finger mazes to challenge your navigation skills





The Lily Festival would not have been a success without all the help from the volunteers and staff helping me out for the weekend.

Don't worry if you were unable to make it to the festival, there are still over 10,000 stems of lilies left to bloom on the farm this summer.

Thank you to everyone who helped visited the farm for the weekend and Thank you very much to all who helped make the festival a success. We hope to see you on the farm this year in our u-pick or next August Long Weekend for the 3rd Annual Lily Festival.

I had many comments saying that I do not look like a farmer, but I assure you that I am. Just look
I am on a tractor, isn't that proof??
