Who doesn’t love sunflowers! It’s not just their bright, vibrant appearance that makes them so beautiful and cheerful, they’re also great at soaking up toxins. In fact, millions were planted after a Tsunami destroyed reactors in a Fukushima nuclear power plant in Japan to help the land recover.
Perhaps this is what makes an entire field of them a little ‘extra’ special.
Sunflower fields have also brought great hope to Australian Farmers in drought affected areas as they don’t require a lot of water. We are lucky to be now seeing the first blooms and the introduction of long table lunches and events in these stunning sunflower fields.
In support of our local farmers I have compiled a list for you of: 14 Sunflower fields you must visit in Australia 2024
There are many incredible fields of yellow sunflowers around Australia to discover, so dust of your gum boots and pack your camera; it’s sunflower season! Summer is usually the time of year to see sunflowers in full bloom but luckily we have one farming family; Glenberrie Family Farms growing 3 types of sunflowers for you to enjoy all year round.
