Yes, to have guaranteed access to our tulip field you need to purchase a ticket online. Unfortunately, we need to turn you away when you arrive on a day that we are sold out and you have not purchased tickets online. We have not experienced a weekend yet when we were not sold out. This year we are featured in Yankee magazine and will be featured in Better Homes and Garden, which means many more New England folks will hear about us! We do our very best to make this event pleasant for everyone! We limit the number of people entering our field because our worst nightmare is traffic jams, long lines and our field being overcrowded and over-picked. For this reason we ask that everyone purchases a ticket online, even for weekdays.

We highly recommend that you purchase tickets online to ensure that you are able to attend and the person ahead of you in line doesn't get the last ticket. As long as we are NOT sold out, you can purchase tickets at the door during the week. But, because of all the media attention we have received, we expect to sell out most weekdays as well.

Unfortunately, sold out is sold out. We wish we could accommodate these requests, but we honestly get so many of them that one more ticket turns into 50 or more tickets on our end. Please, do not call or email about an extra ticket but do post on Facebook that you are looking for one. Sometimes folks can’t use the tickets they purchased or a friend cancels.

No, kids tickets are never sold out. We believe it is important for kids to get outside and explore nature, so we don't want to take away an opportunity for a kid to visit our farm. 

Creative thinking, but no :)

Yes, as long as you contact us via email  within 24 hours of placing your order and the date for the ticket purchased is a minimum of 48 hours away. We are not able to do a direct exchange. Please go ahead and purchase a new ticket. We will cancel/refund the earlier transaction later. It could take 7-10 business days to show up on your statement after we processed it. Processing this request can take a week before we get back to you. 

No. Tickets are nonrefundable and must be used on the date for which they were purchased. This is a new policy for 2018. We expect to sell out weekdays as well this season. This said, if people come on a different date than stated on their ticket, we can't control the amount of people visiting us. This is not good because we don't want to overcrowd our field & parking lot, etc. 

No. We are open rain or shine. We can let you know that even in the rain our tulips make you happy! In previous years, most people still came on rainy days, just bring appropriate clothes and shoes.

Indeed. 

If you purchased more than one ticket, you will not receive separate tickets, but one for all of them. Print duplicate tickets to allow friends/family to check in at different times. Or, present your one ticket and check-in everyone all at once.

Weekend tickets for 18+ adults are $17 and include 10 U-pick tulips.

• Kids tickets 4-17 are $3.00 and never sell out.
  
• Kids 3 and under are free.
  

Last year we experienced an extremely high amount of waste and tulip destruction on the weekends. Weekenders seem to be more interested in taking pictures, picking tulips for the pictures, and then discarding them without paying for them. We did not have this problem during the week. These were perfectly good tulips and we lost more than 40% of our blooms to this unfortunate practice on most weekends.  To try and offset this, we decided to include a minimum of 10 tulips into the admission cost. That was the average amount of tulips purchased according to our sales data. You can still purchase more tulips if you like at $1/stem.

No, but we can donate the tulips to a local nursing home for you or you can consider giving them as a gift or a random act of kindness. You can also always visit during the week when entrance is $5 and doesn’t include tulips.

Yes, but if you have for some reason difficulty, one of our Field Assistants could help you when available.

Weekday tickets for 18+ Adults are $5 when purchased online and $8 at the door. This ticket does not include any tulips.

• Kids tickets 4-17 are $3.00 and never sell out
  
• Kids 3 and under are free.
  

No, it is for entrance only. Tulips are $1/stem. We chose to keep the weekday ticket price the same as we did not have the tulip destruction/waste problem during the week like we had on the weekends.

This year's tulips are all the way in the back field. Last year, cars were parked on the gravel during our early season. This year, everyone is parking in the field. We have a large field for you to park in which could get muddy. Please do not take your fancy low sport car to this event. There are many New England rocks laying around, which are not suitable for low cars. If you come with a regular car, we do not expect it to get damaged or stuck, but parking is at your own risk. We are not responsible for damage and tow truck costs.

Yes, we have accessible parking spaces. These spaces are in our field and could get muddy during wet circumstances. This year's field is all the way in the back, which means we do not have the same parking spaces as last year. 

Yes you can with a regular car or small van/bus. When it is extremely muddy, however, we cannot accommodate vans/buses because they get stuck easily. We never allow large buses close to our field.

A weekend ticket price includes 10 tulips. Each additional tulip is $1 per stem. Weekday tickets are entrance fees only and do not include any tulips, so visitors pay $1 per tulip picked. This price is the same for everyone. We do not offer wholesale prices. Our tulips are very unique and most of them are not available at florists.  Comparable tulips go for $2 or $3 a stem.

You do not need to bring scissors or clippers unless you want to. We do not provide them as they are not needed to pick. To pick, simply grasp the tulip stem as low as possible to the ground and pull up. This method allows you to get the longest stem possible. See our Tulip 101 for more details on how to pick a tulip at the farm.

No, we are just selling the flower. If the bulb comes up when you pick it, don’t worry, you can  snap it off at the wrapping station and leave it for us in the provided bucket. We will use them for our planting stock next year.

If you are interested in purchasing bulbs, please visit our Online Store

This is a definite no. We use these bulbs as our planting stock for next year’s u-pick and our own bulb sales at www.wickedtulips.com  Also, when you dig them up that early in the season, you damage the root system of that flower and all the tulips around it causing them to die.

No. Please do not put it back in the ground ( yes, people do this). Once the tulip is picked, it is yours.  If you stick them back in the ground, they will die and this is a loss for us as a business. It’s like eating food and not paying for it and is one of the reasons we now have to include tulips in the entrance price on the weekends.

We hope to open sometime in late April and will close when the tulips are done blooming. Please check the “Bloom Report” before you plan your trip. It is impossible to predict when the field will bloom. We expect to know the exact opening date 10 days before opening. We are monitoring the bud development closely and will provide timely forecasts and updates on our bloom report. We expect a blooming period of 3-4 weeks.

No.

You do not have to pick and are very welcome to simply come and enjoy the sights and sounds of a large tulip field. You will still be required to pay entrance, and if it is a weekend, 10 tulips are included. If you do not want them, we will donate them for you or you could consider gifting them to someone or even giving them as a random act of kindness. We would not be able to do what we do and be a sustainable business if we did not charge entrance as we get thousands of visitors who just want to see the tulips and take pictures.

Yes, but do stay within the fenced in area and out of the tulip beds. Please stay out of neighboring fields.

We will not have regular vendors, but may have pop-up vendors. Check the bloom report for updates. You are welcome to bring your own food. Please be respectful and place all trash in the provided receptacles.

There are places all around the tulip field where you can toss a blanket down and enjoy a picnic or a snooze in the sun. There will be a few picnic tables available. Chairs are welcome during the week, but not the weekends.

There is handicap parking available near the entrance to the field and there is a handicap port-a-john available at the upper parking lot. This is a farm, so although we are accessible, it is not always easy to maneuver. The farm is not paved; it can be uneven and muddy if wet. Service dogs are welcome, but please be aware that dogs can cause a lot of unintentional damage in the tulip beds and you will be responsible for paying for these damages.

That is one of the best parts. We love seeing parents teach their kids how to take pictures in our fields, and it is a great backdrop for family, engagement, yearbook or any type of photos. We do have some guidelines that we ask you follow and require a site fee for professional photo shoots or photographers who want to take pictures after business hours. See our photography guidelines here.

No. We do not allow any kind of props.
