Without fail, sometime around late summer you open your Instagram to find it awash in bright yellow. Influencers in floppy hats all seemed to find a field blooming with sunflowers over the weekend. Your friends and their kids swapped the city for the country, too, and have the picture-perfect family photos to prove it. If you’re looking for some idyllic photos of your own, some freshly picked flowers, or just some fun on the farm, we’ve got you covered with a list of sunflower farms around Philly.

Head to this Bucks County farm, hop on a wagon to the fields, and create gorgeous bouquets (and selfies) to your heart’s content. Shady Brook Farm also has pick-your-own crops including peppers, tomatoes, kale, and herbs in August; come for apples and pumpkins in September, when you can still get sunflowers while they last. The Sunflower Festival, happening August 13th and 14th, includes family fun like go-karts, live music, obstacle courses, a cow train, and much more.
