Frequently Asked Questions

  • The Field Pass isn't simply an admission fee—it's your ticket to enjoy the farm. It gives you access to our private flower field, provides all the tools you'll need, and helps us maintain the gardens, walking areas, picnic space, and visitor experience throughout the season. We then price flowers separately so you're only paying for the blooms you choose.
