An Afternoon at Wickham Farms

A few months ago I wrote a post about local flower farms to visit this summer. Well, I took my own advice and made the drive to Wickham farms located in Penfield, NY. This was my first time there and I was so happy I made the trip. The farm is located about 90 minutes from Buffalo and is an easy ride. I pre-purchased my ticket online for Opening day. No no need to print your ticket ahead of time, just show it on your phone!

Some things to know before you go:

  • The farm is open Thursday through Sunday

  • Open from 10 am to 7 pm

  • Located at 1315 Sweets Corners Road, Penfield, NY 14526

  • Weekday tickets are $12 and weekend tickets are $17 if purchased online

  • If you’d prefer to purchase in person, weekday tickets are $14 and weekend tickets are $19

  • Included with your ticket is access to the lavender, photo ops and farm attractions

  • For $10 you can cut your own bunch of lavender

  • Lavender Days will run from the end of June through July 18, 2021

  • Definitely stop at the Shakes and Cakes Barn for the Summer Shake Up! It’s filled with strawberry slushee, vanilla ice cream, fresh strawberries and topped with a house made blueberry donut.

  • You can find additional information at www.wickhamfarms.com



** I also stopped at Schutts Apple Mill since I was so close. Located about 6 minutes from Wickham Farms, this is the perfect stop to grab everything apple related. Be sure to get the Apple Frost, especially if it’s a hot day!

Currently in season for U-Pick are raspberries and cherries will begin on June 27, 2021.


I hope this gives you some inspiration for a day trip so get out there and enjoy summer!!!
