Virginia’s Beaver Dam Sunflower Festival Might Just Be The Most Cheerful Event Of The Year
Is there anything more cheerful than a field of blooming sunflowers? You can see for yourself when you attend the Annual Beaver Dam Farm Sunflower Festival. Scheduled from September 10th through September 19th, 2021, this event promises to delight visitors of all ages. In addition to appreciating the beautiful sunflowers, festival-goers can browse one-of-a-kind goods from local vendors and artisans. It’s the best way to usher out the summer season and look forward to the year ahead.
With origins that date back to the early 1900s, Beaver Dam Sunflower Farm has been a staple of the Virginia community for over a century. And there's no more beautiful time to visit than right now!
The annual Beaver Dam Sunflower Festival is a celebration of all things flowers and art. In fact, it's the largest sunflower and artisan festival of its kind in the country. When you visit, you'll love the chance to connect with local vendors and peruse their items.
Of course, the very best part of attending the festival is the opportunity to surround yourself with these cheerful yellow flowers. In addition to 20 acres of blooms, visitors can look forward to hayrides and even a farm petting area.
At the end of the sunflower festival, the owners will harvest the seeds so that they can be used and sold as birdseed. How cool is that?
