“Visitors can’t help but smile here,” said Fred Clarke, general manager,The Flower Fields at Carlsbad Ranch. “We are, first and foremost, a sustainable working farm, and each spring The Flower Fields invites our visitors to ‘live colorfully’ via our rainbow of ranunculus. It is our distinct honor to serve as a multi-hued backdrop to so many family trips, romantic dates and even proposals and weddings. We look forward to all the memories in the making that 2023 holds.”
This year, the working flower ranch adds even more reasons to visit.
