Morning Glory: As good as it gets to begin the day on this sun splashed sunflower field. 200 acres, nearly one million sunflowers here at beautiful Thorn Farms in Clyde, NY. Thanks to Vertigo Drones for the guidance in flying the Typhoon H Plus.

Sunflower Splendor: It’s that time of summer when sunflowers are beginning to emerge in the region. My friends at Thorn Farm in Clyde, NY have one of the best... sunflower farms in New York State and about 50% of the crop has emerged. Daniel Thorn, one of the hardest working guys around, relies on some 200 years of family farming experience to grow and harvest 200 acres of sunflowers each yeara good summer will yield about one million sunflowers here in the expansive fields. Daniel tells me the summer has been a struggle with brutal heat and little rain in this specific area. Thorn Farm sells sunflower seed, mixed wild bird seed, oats, hay, straw, corn and more. This is an active farm, trespassing is discouraged. See more

As the sunflowers are starting to bloom please note this gentle reminder; The fields are for viewing only. We ask you do not pick the flowers or trespass in the fields. You are welcome to take personal pictures from the road, but no additional professional photography for client sessions are allowed at this time. The fields are located on hills with many blind spots. PLEASE PLEASE be careful and mindful when pulling over. Do NOT stop in the middle of the rural roads, and be m...indful of those who are stopped. Thank you!! Enjoy your summer!
