Carlsbad, CA–The Flower Fields at Carlsbad Ranch is open to the public, allowing guests to experience the magic of growing color with a dazzling floral display across the hills of Carlsbad.
This year’s theme of “Spring into Color” serves as not only nature’s announcement of the arrival of spring but is a celebration of the working farm’s cultivation of fifty-five acres of Giant Tecolote Ranunculus: a flower renowned for its large, double-petaled blooms that sit atop tall, straight stems. The season stretches eight to ten weeks each year with a full slate of activities including live music performances, workshops, and wellness classes that harness the power of Mother Nature.
“The color that The Flower Fields brings each spring extends far beyond our rows of rainbow ranunculus,” says Fred Clarke, general manager of The Flower Fields at Carlsbad Ranch. “From the brightly painted wagons that bring visitors into the fields, to vendors serving eye-catching lemonade and ice-cream dipped in sprinkles to the blueberry picking, Sea of Sunflowers and various gardens, color truly abounds at every turn.”
The activity calendar is brimming with programming such as the return of the lauded outdoor music series which features performances by Swingergy, The Derringers, Bill Magee, SoRockBlu, Bayou Brothers, Cool Rush, and Michele Lundeen. Sunset Wine Tasting, Flower Crown Workshops, and Tea in the Garden will return across multiple dates along with wellbeing classes including Meditation and Sound Healing and Flower Flow Yoga. The American Flag of Flowers, Tractor Wagon Rides, a Sweet Pea Maze, Santa’s Playground, and the Carlsbad Mining Company will deliver on the nostalgic experiences that have brought guests back to The Flower Fields time and time again for over sixty years.
