A sunflower festival in Wisconsin is one of the best ways to brighten your summers. For a fun-filled evening, mark your calendars for the Sunflower and Firefly Festival at Creek Bed Country Farmacy on Aug. 1, 2020, from noon to 8 p.m. This lively event offers an immersion into a sea of vibrant blooms, but that’s not all. The event also features vendors and plenty of options for fun. Read on for all the details about this Wisconsin sunflower festival near me.
Editor's note: The Sunflower celebration at the farm is now part of the outstanding fall celebration. The juicy peaches are now the item in August for pick-your-own or pre-pick. Either way, plenty of reasons exist to visit this lovely farm in Wisconsin.
Every summer for the past several years, Creek Bed Country Farmacy in Poynette has hosted the Sunflower and Firefly Festival – and this year is no different.
The cheery, can’t-miss event is scheduled for Saturday, August 1st from 12 p.m. – 8 p.m. Admission is just $8 per person and includes one free sunflower. (Festival-goers under 3 are free.)
Creek Bed Country Farmacy specializes in oilseed sunflowers, which unlike ornamental sunflowers, only bloom for about 12 days, so it’s during the fest that the sunflowers are at their best.
And best might be an understatement. The spectacular sea of sunflowers is truly a sight to behold, which means a camera is a must when attending the festival.
The beautiful blooms are definitely the star of the affair, but there’s lots more to love about the Sunflower and Firefly Festival.
Local crafters and artisans will be on hand, selling their wares.

Aside from shopping, festival-goers of all ages will find ways to stay entertained.
Farm animals, a play yard, live music, and an array of refreshments, from ice cream to burgers and fries, are just a few options for amusement.
Due to COVID-19, there are a few changes to the festival this year. For one, visitors will park in the grass parking lot, which is south of the animal display. Also, hayrides will only be used for transporting elderly and disabled visitors to and from the parking lot.
Lastly, masks are appreciated but not required.
Remember, the festival is on August 1, 2020, from 12 p.m. – 8 p.m. For more information, call (608) 635-8798. You can also visit the Creek Bed Country Farmacy website or Facebook page.
Can’t make it to the festival? No problem; Creek Bed Country Farmacy will remain open every day the sunflowers are in bloom (approximately August 2nd - August 7th). This information will be updated on the farm’s Facebook, so make sure to check its page prior to your visit. Admission on non-festival days is $3 per person. Visitors 3 and under are free.
This isn’t the only place you can see lovely blooms. Read about another here.
