10 Seasons of Wicked Tulips
We have grown over the last 10 seasons and we don’t just mean in quantities of tulips, size of fields, or even amount of farms- although all of those things have happened!
Keriann and Jeroen Koeman, our wicked amazing owners have celebrated wedding anniversaries, IVF victories, the birth of their son Kees (Case), and watched themselves grow over the years.
The whole reason we come back year after year to bring you tulips, is to spread happiness throughout our community one tulip at a time. To celebrate our last 10 seasons here in New England we have asked our customers to share their stories, and here they are. Our hearts are full, and we love seeing these beautiful traditions and meaningful visits.

I booked tickets for my boyfriend and I to visit the Preston location in May 2021. I saw posts on Instagram and really wanted to visit and I thought it would make a really nice outing together after a long winter. I told my staff how excited I was to go. They kept joking that they thought it would be a perfect place for my boyfriend to propose (they knew I was hoping to get engaged soon as we had been dating for over 7 years). It turned out they were right. We visited the farm and walked around the perimeter to find the best spot to take some photos and he proposed! I was so surprised and excited and he got me the most beautiful floral inspired ring! We got married in September 2021 and visit the farm every spring to “relive the day”.

In 2018, I visited Wicked Tulips farm with a group of friends, not knowing what to expect. Despite the forecasted rain, we took a half-day off on Friday and drove from Boston to make it to our allotted slot. The beauty of the tulip fields left us utterly mesmerized. From that year onwards, visiting the farm became an annual tradition. When COVID hit, it was heartbreaking to miss our cherished tradition. However, I made a promise to myself that I would take my rainbow baby born that year to this magical field to celebrate her in the most colorful place I know. As she grows older, she eagerly asks about our next trip to the tulip farm, and the photos we take there have become the perfect birthday memento each year. This tradition has become a beautiful way to celebrate her life and the vibrant joy she brings into ours.🌷♥️🧿

In 2016 I saw a beautiful post on facebook from a friend and immediately asked her where it was. Days after, I went with my daughter and my niece, we loved it! I remember it was raining but we were so happy to be there we didn’t mind the rain. My daughter was 3 yrs old when we visited that time, we have been going every year ever since…. 2017 I was pregnant, 2018 took our twin boys for the first time… We have visited with my grandma, mom, sister and nieces and nephews! My daughter is now 12. Every spring we look forward to a beautiful week day when we pick up the kids in school, change (for the pictures🥰) and drive to the farm. It’s definitely one of our favorite traditions!

This tulip field is incredibly special to me. This was the last place my best friend and I visited before she was tragically taken from this world. At the time, I never knew it would be our final memory together, but somehow the universe gave us a perfect day. We laughed until our stomachs ached, captured beautiful photos, and brought home stunning tulips. I have since learned the yellow tulips symbolize friendship and everytime I see them, I think of her and the joy we shared at the tulip field. This place will forever hold a piece of my heart.

May 1 2016 was my first of many visits to the tulips over since you opened. It was my first Mother’s Day and my birthday month. I can’t remember how I heard but I heard a tulip field had opened in Rhode Island about 45 minutes away from my home. I have loved tulips since I was a teen, I’d prefer them over roses any day. I’ve dreamed of going to Holland some day. So I knew this was the perfect outing to celebrate a very special year. I didn’t know if you’d be here as a one hit wonder or be here for a long time so we had to go! We “all” went, my husband, our 5 month old daughter, my parents and grandparents, to go marvel at the tulips because there was nothing else for more perfect. It really was a dream come true for me. I was so happy to see varieties of tulips I’ve never seen in the states. It was truly a very happy day. I really treasure this outing in particular because it’s the only one of 2 times my husband has come with me. It’s not his thing but he’s been happy to support my going every year since. My grandparents have come a few more times but the walking has become too much so this years where they could go are locked in my memory. I have one photo of all of us from that first day, all bundle up, definitely looking like New Englanders, perhaps not cute but we had such a good time. Since then I’ve had 2 more babies. Kids are now 5,7,9. My mother and I typically go at least once together a season as my birthday/our Mother’s Day outing. We had years where we took all 3 kids and now we have one more spring with my littlest to come along for our week days visits. We typically opt for the weekdays and enjoy it most that way. I’ve taken friends with me, did my last babies 1 year old photos in the feild when we knew our family was complete. Often I visit more than once a season. I enjoy filling the house for a few special weeks with fresh tulips. I always make bouquets and gift them to my children’s teachers for teacher appreciation week. I’ve been caught out in the wild sporting both a tulip farm branded hat and water bottle unintentionally and been asked if I owned the farm.(I wish) but I talked way too long to this stranger about how amazing the farm is and how you all have grown over the years. I am really thankful for the tulip farm. I’ve always had nice interactions with the owners and all staff. I’ve been so glad to see you stabilize and adjust to some wild issues (dining flower wary on, covid, New England weather) This year, hubby gifted me a season pass for my birthday so I can go walk the fields as much as I wish. It’s the best gift ever! Tulip days are so special to me. I think I managed 4 last year without a pass. I’m excited to be unstoppable and walk and pick and buy as I wish this year. It’s a very happy way to celebrate 10 seasons of my very favorite spring activity, birthday and Mother’s Day tradition. Thank you so much! Let’s keep doing this til we are all very old and gray haired ..and then pass it on so the kids can go long after us. I wish you many many more decades of success.

How to plan a spring garden? In fall?!?
Watch the video to see what a few of our team members have done planning their home gardens. The beauty of tulips is, you can plant your beds however you like! Or, let's put it this way, even if you don't know, and want to "wing it" by dreaming up new combinations, or laying into the ground a jumble of tulips you think are pretty, you won't be disappointed! Part of the joy of gardening is waiting for the surprises nature has in store for you. And tulips and their vibrant color just burst with joy no matter if they are carefully placed in single beds, in mono-chromatic groups, or in a kaleidoscopic array like ....
How to Protect your bulbs from critters.
Has this ever happened to you -"I would like to order some bulbs. I planted 50 of your bulbs last year and they all came up. But, before they had a chance to bloom something came along and ate the flowers. Do you have any suggestions for me? I'd like to plant more but don't want to just feed the critters."
