Important Consideration:
Sunflowers are an agricultural crop and therefore subject to weather, growing conditions and ripening variables.
We cannot guarantee that the sunflowers will bloom on a particular date, so prepare to be flexible by 7-10 days in your visit. Stay tuned on Facebook for up-to-the-minute plans.
The event is an outdoor event and therefore held weather permitting.
Should a complete crop failure arise, tickets will be exchanged for our fall festival tickets OR credit towards another Coshocton KOA Event.
NO cash refunds.
