The weather determines the dates of when the tulips bloom, but we expect they will be in full bloom or nearly full bloom sometime during mid-April through mid-May...2-3 weeks of bloom time. Check our Facebook page regularly for up-to-date information. The tulips are planted near our own, private 36 acre lake for an absolutely beautiful setting. The gift shop on the adjacent Adventure Farm grounds will be open for gifts, wine tasting, our own fresh donuts, popcorn, kettle corn, and indoor restrooms. It’s about a ½ mile walk, or you may drive, from the tulip fields parking area.
Wheelchair accessibility:
The
tulips have been planted in a hay field, so the ground is a farm field
with some lumps and bumps. The walkways are mostly a grass/weed
mixture, but still with lumps and bumps. If it has recently rained, the
ground turns a little mushy. The parking area is rough grass.
From the tulip fields, the ground slopes down to the festival area
with the food trucks, picnic tables, weekend music, etc. The slopes are
within ADA guidelines. Because the ground is rough, some people may
need assistance getting their wheelchair back up the hill.
We have made every effort to make these lumpy fields as
wheelchair friendly as possible, but you must decide on the capabilities
of yourself or the person you are attending.
You are welcome to bring your dog if it is on a leash and plays well with others.
No drones are allowed on the Farm.
