They look straight out of a fairy tale. 💐

There is nothing more magical than strolling a giant field of colourful blooms. Instead of visiting the nearby flower shop, you can head to one of these Ontario flower farms and create a custom bouquet.

Do you love going strawberry picking? Well, these pick-your-own farms offer a similar experience. But instead of a basket of berries, you end up with stunning sunflowers or peonies to decorate your home.
