Nothing says summer like seeing fields of beautiful sunflowers! They make me smile. My Instagram and Facebook feed light up every July with glorious photos of these golden beauties. I see people stage their baby photos, engagement, wedding shoots (how do they time it?) and so much more. I even took a special photo class on sunflower selfies at the North Carolina Museum of Art last summer. There is something about the intricate center, the way the bees buzz in and out, how they all face in the same direction, that captivates us. So here is the list of the best sunflower fields in Pennsylvania that you can visit.
This post will be updated regularly as more details are announced. Sunflowers generally bloom in July. Updated 1/05/26.
Sunflowers are more than pretty to look at. They can generate cooking oil and biodiesel to power equipment. Their seeds are delicious, as humans and squirrels will attest. Bringing sunflowers into your home is like bringing the sunshine in.
Some of the sunflower fields allow visitors to stroll amongst the flowers, while others restrict you to specific aisles. Some sunflower fields allow visitors to pick their own flowers to take home — a special memento of their visit. Other sunflower fields do not allow anyone to touch or remove the flowers. It is important to check the rules for each field to ensure that you have the best visit and are happy with your experience. Please enjoy these great sunflower fields in Pennsylvania!

Sunflower Field Etiquette
Each sunflower field in Pennsylvania has its own set of rules. Please consider them carefully before going out to each sunflower field to avoid aggravation. Some general rules have been listed below:
- Do not go to any sunflower fields in Pennsylvania when they are not open.
- Driveways are made of dirt and gravel – drive SLOWLY!
- Do not smoke anywhere on the property, including in parking lots.
- Only bring your pet on a leash if permitted.
- Bring your own pruning shears and bucket if you’ll be picking your own sunflowers.
- Only cut the stems you plan to purchase.

- Walk between the sunflower rows – use the paths.
- Bring your own water bottle.
- Wear sunscreen if you’ll be picking your own sunflowers.
- Don’t forget bug spray since there are often woods nearby.
