The festival wasn't just about sunflowers; it offered an array of experiences that catered to all ages. Attendees could venture into the Sunflower Maze, a sprawling labyrinth spread across two acres in the pattern of a sunflower!

No festival is complete without culinary delights, and this Sunflower Festival was no exception. Attendees could enjoy a variety of treats including frozen strawberry and peach lemonades that offered a refreshing respite from the summer heat. The air was filled with the savory aroma of ribbon-cut cheesy bacon ranch potatoes from the Pocono Potato Chip Company, serving up comfort food that perfectly complemented the festivities.

The recent Sunflower Festival at Yenser's Tree Farm was more than just an event; it was a celebration of summer, beauty, and the joy of being in nature's embrace.
