I am a nature lover and self-proclaimed foodie wrapped in one package. In my previous life, I was an Accountant, but numbers were boring and writing is the only thing that fuels my soul. So, I write because it's my freedom...it brings me joy. When I'm not writing dope articles for OnlyInYourState, I am writing and editing articles for my online blog on Medium.com. Or, when I get the chance, I am off on a trip with my family chasing waterfalls, or simply exploring the great outdoors. My mantra is to always find the best part of every day and bask in it.
Y’all it’s sunflower season again, so folks, it’s time to pick your own sunflowers from a nearby farm. Farmers are gearing up for the fall season by planting acres of seeds that will bloom into those delightful sunflowers. When was the last time you frolicked in a sunflower field? If you can’t remember, head over to Mootown, a farm in Brookland Arkansas, and spend some time dancing in a field of those vibrant beauties.
Editor’s Note: Mootown Farm’s Sunflower Safari and Corn Maze are closed for the 2022 season and will return in 2023.
Welcome to Mootown! A charming farm tucked away in Northeast Arkansas, just a few miles north of Jonesboro.
Currently, the farm is open from Friday to Sunday, but be sure to check the Facebook page (linked below) for any updates.
Naturally, the farm plants crops like corn, squash, kale, tomatoes, peppers, and more. And once the crops are at peak ripeness and harvested, they are sold at a local farmers market in Jonesboro.
But best of all, the farm plants acres of vibrant sunflowers and you can pick your own. You’ll love frolicking amongst the blooms in the fields that extend as far as the eye can see.
Be sure to check the Facebook page and website for upcoming dates because weather can impact crops as well as delay events.
There’s a small admission fee for the safari that includes one sunflower that you can pick for yourself. Additionally, guests could purchase more sunflowers as well as a pail to arrange the gorgeous blooms.
Not to mention all the other fun activities at the farm. So, bring the kids to Mootown farm for the fall festivities and enjoy all this charming farm has to offer. Happy picking y’all!!!
If you plan to attend this event or any other at the farm, be sure to check the website or Facebook page for upcoming dates. In addition, due to capacity issues, the owners recommend advance ticket purchases for all their events.
