Taking time to stop and smell the flowers might sound cliché, but have you ever tried it? Strolling on a farm or through the woods where you see blossoming flowers everywhere you look, stopping to smell the prettiest or the most unique ones. Turtle Hills Farm in Missouri makes stopping, smelling, and picking the flowers easy and fun during its U-pick flower hours.
Carve out an hour or two for a leisurely visit to Turtle Hills Farm, in Sullivan, a charming specialty-cut flower farm that offers U-pick hours, workshops, and a whole lot more.
The season at Turtle Hills Farm runs from April through September or until the fall’s first frost, whichever comes first. That gives you plenty of time for a visit or more.
Once you’ve picked your flowers, you can arrange them at one of the picnic tables at the farm, or you can take them home. Staff will help you secure the flowers for your drive home.
You might want to bring your camera along as the flower fields paint the perfect backdrop for photographs. Or, get the whole gang together for a visit if it’s been far too long since you’ve had your last girls’ day out.
