Got two left feet? No dancing partner? No problem! Neither skill nor dancing partner is required, and dancing is optional. Just come on out, relax, enjoy the music, and have a great time, or, as Mark Twain said, "Dance like nobody's watching!"


Sunflower Maze -- Opens July 31, 2010!

Open daily 9am-5pm, weather permitting.
Ticket sales close at 4:30pm.

Be among the first to explore our newly designed sunflower maze, carved among three acres and 235,000 sunflowers! Ticket sales help support the kids of Connecticut Children's Medical Center in Hartford, CT.

What better way to spend a summer day than to navigate through a field lush with beautiful, multi-colored sunflowers! (The flowers are ornamental sunflowers, without pollen to attract bees or stir up allergies.) You'll enjoy a bird's eye view of our maze from our viewing platform, and from the peaks of the surrounding orchard hillsides.

While you're having fun navigating the pathways, enjoy knowing that your visit helps support a great cause!

Admission:
Ages 13 years and up: $9.00
Ages 4 years to 12 years: $5.00
Under 4 years: free admission

Group Rates are available! Call 860/349-6043.
