So, in trying to think of some different things to do on
Oahu this trip, I stumbled across the mention of sunflower fields. It turns out
that Pioneer Dupont has a sunflower seed farm on the north shore side of the island.
We decided to head out that way to see if we could get a
couple of snapshots. We had driven past sunflower fields in Kansas, and I
thought it would be fun to see a field up close. We should have called first.
The season had already ended.
However, I noticed a photo on a Facebook post from my friend
Dan who lives on the island. I asked him about it when we met him and his
family for church and brunch.
Aloun Farms has a pumpkin patch, a taro patch, and some
sunflower fields. We decided to check it out too. Yeah! They still had
sunflowers. It was the last weekend of their pumpkin patch. Essentially, it was
a sort of fall festival, complete with kiddie rides, carnival games, petting
zoo, pony rides, live music, vendor booths, and food.
