May 11th after a gorgeous Mother’s Day - our field has still soooo many tulips left to pick! Pictures below are made today! The first picture is our show garden and the other pictures the U-pick field!



May 8th it’s a perfect tulips picking day! Drizzle expected to start around 3pm, but dry and not windy in the morning.

May 7th We are ready for the most beautiful Mother's Day tulip field ever! We got a little shower overnight - which was hard needed. No more dust or thirsty tulips. The field has not become muddy. The weather looks great for upcoming days. Saturday after 2pm we likely get some more rain. But Friday and Sunday sunny and beautiful!

May 5th we have had some gorgeous days! The tulip field is finally in full bloom and we are going to have an amazing Mother’s Day week and weekend! We also extended ticket sales until the week after Mother’s Day! We hope to open up even more days, it looks like we might be still opening up the weekend of May 16 & 17 too! :) The late blooming tulips are finally coloring up. Our Mid and Late blooming tulips are stealing the show at the moment, while the early bloomers are winding down. Look at all those new buds we still have! 


May 2nd We might get a few light showers/drizzle today. The latest forecast says between noon to 3pm. Don’t let the rain stop you from having joy in the tulips- they will still brighten your day if you let them! We are open rain or shine.

April 30 We had a beautiful quiet day today - the rains wasn't too bad. Who ever visited had almost the whole field for themselves- lucky them!
The field is still getting still prettier every day! We have the best tulip weather we can wish for! The Mid blooming tulips are in full swing! Now is the time to visit. The weather forecast is gorgeous for Friday May 1st & Monday May 4th. 62 Degrees and SUNNY! 🌞 There is no better Tulip Picking weather then Sunny and 62! 🌞

April 27 A beautiful sunrise this morning - it is absolutely stunning over here! We feel grateful for this amazing weather. Sunny and cool is what make our tulips last the longest! We still recommend to plan your visit sooner then later. Tickets are not on sale yet for Mother's Day weekend (because we want to be 99.9% sure that we can be open), but I am very hopeful that we will be open the weekend of May 9-10.


April 26 We had a beautiful sold out weekend! This cooler weather is perfect for the tulips and will extend the season! Our early tulips are in peak bloom, and our mid blooming tulips are just getting started!


April 25 Our field is getting prettier every day - but most tulips are not ready yet. 
April 23 Bzzz a happy Bee in our Tulips :)
