In pictures: Northamptonshire farm opens pick-your-own sunflower field and maize maze for summer holidays

A bright, colourful day out in the county’s countryside

A Northamptonshire farm has thrown open its gates once again to provide families with a fun, outdoorsy day out.

Overstone Grange Farm opened its pick-your-own sunflower field and maize maze last weekend, after a slight weather delay. Owners said it was a great opening weekend.

This summer is the farm’s fifth year of opening to the public for a range of activities during the summer holidays and this year there are two maize mazes – one for smaller children, as well as a play patch, games and caterers. All of this on top of picking your own sunflowers, priced at five for £5.

Below are pictures taken on Thursday August 3 of the pick-your-own sunflower field in Northamptonshire.

The field will be open throughout the school holidays. Search Overstone Grange Farm on Facebook to check which days it is open, as it could vary. Ticket information can be found on the page too.
