August is the season for sunflowers and we have some great sunflower fields that we can visit in and around the Eastbourne area. Pick your fave sunflowers and get your piccies for the socials.
From Eastbourne to Crawley, we’ve rounded up 3 places for your sunflower viewing and also some family fun of course.
Tulleys Sunflower Festival
When: All of August
Tulleys know how to do a seasonal event and the Sunflower Festival won’t disappoint. Your ticket price includes entry into the farm and one sunflower stem for you to pick and take home with you.
Whilst there you will find lots of photo opportunities that they have set up for you. There will be food and drink and live music as well.

Sidnye Flowers
When: Currently
** EDIT: We went here at the weekend and there were no sunflowers **
Now this is a bit different, you go to look of course, but you can cut your own flowers. It’s £1.50 a stem if you’re just wanting 15 sunflowers and £1 a stem of you’re picking 30. You pick your own and also brin your own stuff to cut etc including a bucket to put flowers in.
Dependant on the day they will also have food and drink trucks there, so we’re guessing that means at the weekend?
Anywho, you can get more information here.
Location: Bolney, Haywards Heath
