What we thought would be a fun farm experience on a beautiful fall day turned out to be a nightmare!! Terrible customer service! First, the worker at the cash register was rude to us, because we walked in the store the 'wrong' way. Then when we checked out, she continued to argue with us that there was a sign, which was hidden under a tiny table we almost tripped on, with packages of overpriced cider donuts that were falling and lying on the dirt floor! Go to Tender Crop Farm instead which is right up Rte 1A in Newbury; caring and friendly staff with a much larger inventory and better prices!!

This is a nice Farm and a great field. I went yesterday and the sunflowers are still beautiful.
Can we see sunflowers in October ? And Do you allow dogs in the farm ?

I'm not sure how long they will last. I know they are at peak blooming now, this week. (Mid September.) It will depend when we get a frost.
When I was there I did see a few dogs on leashes.
im thinking about go there tomorrow. do you have to pre order ticket?

I was about to simply stop by on 8/14 without making arrangements ahead of time (just for buying some produce from the farm stand). The aisles were laid out in a single, one-way path, so keeping distant from others was no trouble.
Yes $10 to park for the sunflower fields. Otherwise there is not much to see so I believe parking would be free. The parking proceeds are donated to charity.
Parking is 10$ per car, so definately carpool. It's a little bit of a walk from The parking field too. Atleast this year they have police detail to keep traffic somewhat moving.
You have to check their website as September gets closer
Are sunflowers ready?

Usually first week of September but check their website or Facebook page, they keep you up-to-date. Very cool when in bloom!
I am currently a rising senior and learning looking for a location take my senior portraits. I have never been to Colby farm and my question whether or not this is a good place to take my portraits? Are the flowers blooming? Thank you

My daughter did her portraits there and they were perfect. You have to wait until early September for bloom.
usually first week of September although I've seen them in late August. You can stay up-to-date on their website or follow them on Facebook. They will definitely keep you posted.
Colby Farm's website says the first couple weeks in sept. Don't trust the onlyinyourstate page that says mid August to Sept. I made the drive out there for nothing.
