Sunflower Festival

Join us on our 200-acre farm in Carlisle, PA for our free annual two-day Sunflower Festival during our fall sunflower season! Pick as many sunflowers as you would like for free and enjoy a day on the farm with food trucks, sales, artisan craft vendors, and more!

Can’t make it to the Sunflower Festival? Be sure to visit the farm during Sunflower Season.

Make sure to bring along a vase/bucket and clippers to pick FREE sunflowers! We will have a clipping station and water available and just in case you forget a vase or clippers, we will have them available for purchase in our store and at the information tent.

Stop by our Make Your Own Scarecrow section to build your very own toddler-sized scarecrow. Choose your overalls and shirt, stuff with straw, and pick out your very own gourd head to complete your scarecrow while supplies last.

Get excellent deals during this awesome annual Oops Sale! This is the perfect time to stock up on discounted hand-crafted gourds that have a minor blemish (or may have just been retired).

Stroll through our grassy lawn and shop a variety of Artisan craft vendors! Each booth will be filled with artisan-made goodies for you to enjoy!

Take a trolley ride around our 200-acre farm to see beautiful sights of sunflowers in bloom. Our Trolley Rides take approximately 45 minutes and are $5.00. There is not a charge for handheld infants. Be sure to get your tickets before the event as they tend to sell out.

Right beside the Meadowbrooke Farm, you will find Warehime’s Pumpkin Patch who offer a large selection of pumpkins in many shapes and colors. Stop by, grab a wagon, and pick your own! Be sure to enjoy their photo ops as well! Warehime’s also hosts designer sunflowers of many colors.

Enjoy a craft beer from Molly Pitcher Brewing Company, a hard cider from Under the Bridge or PA wines from Castlerigg Wine Shop!

Visit our 7,000 sq ft Gift Shop on the farm filled with gourds for all seasons as well as other artisan crafts, gifts, raw hard shell gourds for crafting, food items and more!

Young and old can enjoy getting their faces painted by Oh Look, Face Painting by Amber on our grassy event lawn.

Enjoy live music throughout the day on our grassy event lawn. Local artists of a variety of genres will be sure to entertain throughout each day of the event.

Enjoy a variety of local food trucks to keep your belly happy while you explore our acres of free sunflowers!

K&R Bunnies will be bringing their super soft bunnies for you to hold and pet each day from Noon until 4:00pm. Make sure to stop by and maybe you will learn a thing or two about bunny ownership.
