This spring, The Flower Fields at Carlsbad Ranch will once again burst into bloom. More than 70 million Giant Tecolote Ranunculus flowers shows off their rainbow colors on a 55-acre setting just north of San Diego near California’s iconic coast.

“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. Additional programming includes a meditation and sound healing workshop, sunset wine tastings, tea in the garden and flower flow yoga — an hour-long flow class overlooking the flower fields. Live outdoor music and concerts will feature Bayou Brothers, Bill Magee Blues Band, Sara Petite and Cool Rush.
