Springtime in Virginia looks a little different this year. Fortunately, the natural world of blooming flowers and buzzing bees hasn’t been affected. Spring is one of the most cherished seasons at Burnside Farms, which is known for its beautiful seasonal blooms. Like all of Virginia’s businesses and attractions, Burnside Farms is committed to the safety of its employees and visitors in light of COVID-19. While remaining in modified operation under strict regulations and pre-sold tickets, the farm has been kind enough to share some of its breathtaking photos of the current blooms.
Although we might not be able to see the blooming tulips in person, the following photos will help tide us over until next year.
Typically, Burnside Farms welcomes countless visitors to its Festival of Spring each year to celebrate the blooming of tulips and daffodils.
Pre-purchased tickets allow a handful of visitors to see the farm in person; however, many of these are sold out. Limited quantities ensure that everyone's health remains a top priority.
While this year looks much different in terms of visitor capacity, the farm has been kind enough to document the blooms so that they can be enjoyed virtually.
These photos, captured on April 8th, highlight just how bright and cheerful the flowers are. It's almost like they know that we could all use a little bit of joy right now.
Blooming season at Burnside Farms, which is an impressive 8 acres in size, lasts approximately 21 days. That means you can look forward to some more photo updates in the days and weeks to come!
While we daydream about frolicking through these beautiful rows of tulips and daffodils next year, we'll have these gorgeous photos to keep our spirits high.
