Editor’s Note: Unfortunately, according to Springs Farm, just two days after this article published, 80% of the four-acre sunflower field was demolished by deer over the span of a single weekend. As a result, Springs Farms has cancelled the sunflower festival for 2019. We’re saddened by the news and by the loss of the field – and hope this awesome festival “springs” back to life next year!

Few things turn heads quite like a blooming sunflower field – except, perhaps four acres of blooming sunflowers! Go ahead now and mark your calendar for the first-ever sunflower festival at Springs Farm in Fort Mill. The sunflower fields are primed to be blooming the weekend of September 14-15, and that’s exactly the dates of this upcoming 2-day sunflower festival in South Carolina.

The fields include a few varieties of sunflowers ranging in height from 3 - 6 feet. And there will be plenty of roomy rows for walking among the bright yellow blooms.
