Events The 6th Annual Sunflower House at Billings Farm & Museum

Experience the wonder of the sixth annual Sunflower House at Billings Farm & Museum, a breathtaking and magical sight to behold, spanning 20,000 square feet on picturesque farmland.  Guests are welcome to wander through pathways and meander among “rooms” and “hallways” formed by sunflower stalks and blooms.  Zigzagging paths ensure maximum impact of eastward-facing blooms, offering stunning vistas at every turn.  

Curated by the Woodstock Inn & Resort’s Master Gardener, Ben Pauly, and Kelly Way Gardens Manager, Taylor Hiers, this year’s Sunflower House features over 50 varieties, including 13 sunflower types considered “showstoppers.”  From towering giants reaching heights of up to 14 feet to sweet, small blooms just 1 foot tall, each flower contributes to the living work of art.  Delightful names such as Lemon Cutie, Starburst Panache, Buttercream, Feed the Birds, and Just Crazy add to the joy of the experience.  Complimented by 50 companion annuals, the garden bursts with a kaleidoscope of colors, ranging from soft yellows to deep maroons with every shade of rust, orange, yellow, and red in between. 

This vibrant canvas evolves daily. As August unfolds, guests will see the emerging blooms with peak flowers anticipated from mid-August to early September, weather permitting.
