A sure sign Fall and leafpeeping is just around the next corner are the fields of sunflowers planted here and there in New England. On our way to Lake Winnipesaukee , in Brookfield, NH we stopped at the Sunny Hak’rs Farm to buy several bunches of sunflowers and chat with the owners who have been renovating an old farm house that sat idle for many years.
As the name of the farm suggests, there were several acres of sunflowers blooming by the side of the road, and the owners in their road-side stand , just as pleasant and friendly. If you’re in the neighborhood, be sure to stop for a bunch to take home!
