Sunflowers just add a magical touch to summertime, though we usually have to wait until deep into summer to enjoy them. When the sunflowers begin to bloom, you have quite a few places to drink in their golden beauty. Second Mountain Sunflower Farm in Pennsylvania, for example, offers winding paths through fields of golden sunflowers. It’s a picture-perfect summertime destination.
July's an exciting time at Second Mountain Sunflowers in Orwigsburg. That's when rows and rows of sunflowers begin to bloom.
Some types of sunflowers bloom as early as July and can continue blossoming through the first frost, giving us plenty of time to visit the state's many sunflower fields.
The farm often hosts a variety of vendors that sell a delicious selection of food. Sit back, have a bite to eat, and listen to live music on select days.
