Berry Hill UPick Farm Sunflowers in 2018 - Berryton, Kansas Berry Hill UPick Farm in Berryton, Kansas, just south of Topeka is a public sunflower farm. The owners of Berry Hill UPick decided to plant sunflowers to help draw attention to their strawberry farm. The farm is new just this year and with the popularity of the Grinter's Sunflower Farm in Leavenworth County, this seemed like a great way to gain visibility. Berry Hill plants seeds on multiple dates to extend the blooming period over a longer period. There were two plantings in 2022 and they bloomed in mid August and late August. We will update this page as more info is available and you can check on the progress of the sunflower bloom on their Facebook Page. The first 2023 bloom peaked on June 25. The second bloom was late July until the first weekend in August and the third bloom was in September. There is no charge for visiting the sunflower field, but donation boxes will be set out. In particular, professional photographers having sessions at Berry Hill are encouraged to donate. Please leave a dollar per bloom for sunflowers you take with you.. For the best photography, come on a sunny day in the first couple of hours after sunrise or before sunset. Be sure to respect the farm and the neighbors. Please do not go onto other property and carry out your trash. Do not park on the street or in the neighbor's drive way. The parking will become very muddy when it rains and there is a small risk of getting stuck in the first 24 hours after a heavy rain. There are no rest rooms or other facilities.
