Photos: Sunflowers at Alvis Farms

The Sunflower Festival was this past weekend but you can still check thousands of sunflowers.

This morning we jumped in the car and headed out past Short Pump to Alvers Farm. This past weekend they held their 2nd Annual Sunflower Festival. Fortunately for oblivious folks like me you can still visit the farm and check out their 50 acres of sunflowers, sunflower maze and pick your own sunflower patch. Flowers will cost you $2 a stem or 3 for $5.

The farm is open through Thursday, July 16th. You can check it out for $5 from 8-10 AM or from 5-8 PM. We got there right at 8 AM and a steady crowd trickled in as the temperature climbed. Hit that link above for directions to the farm.
