As summer draws to a close, flowers are erupting at Galloway Farm in Hallsboro. Sunflowers are blooming on several acres, and Farmer Alma is inviting everyone to come out, pick the budding beauties, and take some pictures.
September marks the beginning of “Selfies in the Sunflowers.”
Each year, Galloway Farm plants a huge summer bouquet for visitors to enjoy, and new for the fall of 2022, Zinnas will be available to pose with and pick to take home. Props can also be found throughout the fields for visitors take selfies in.
Alma Galloway took to Facebook to show the fruits of the farm’s labor after returning home from a trip.
“I was super excited when I came out here and saw all the colors,” she said. “By Labor Day, the field will look like a blanket.”
Tickets are on sale now for $8.50 each, and spots can be reserved from Sept. 2 – 18. Sunflowers for picking are $1 per stem, buy 5 and get 1 free, buy 10 and get 3 free, or you can fit as many as you can into one of the farm’s buckets for $25. Zinnias for picking are $25 per quart jar filled with your choice of flowers. Be sure to bring your own shears for cutting.
