How to get tickets to Sunflower Festival at Scarecrow Farm
Ticket prices for Sunflower Days 2021 are not yet announced. In 2019, tickets to Sunflower Festival at Scarecrow Farm were $11.95 (plus tax) for each person 3+ and toddlers and babies who are 2 or younger were free. I would anticipate a similar price range for 2021, and will update when prices are announced.
