Maria's Sunflower Field Of Hope In Avon Is In Bloom

AVON, OH — The Maria's Sunflower Field of Hope in Avon is now in bloom.

Maria's Shop at the field is open seven days a week while the flowers are in bloom. The store is open from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. The field is at the corner of Chester Road and Jaycox Road. Drivers can spot the field from north of I-90, between the Lear-Nagle and SR 83 exits.

Maria's Ice Cream Wagon will be at the field on Friday evenings and on Saturdays and Sundays during the day.

"We welcome visitors to come and walk the paths from dawn 'til dusk. Pets are welcome as long as they are well-behaved and you can clean up after them. There is no admission to enter the field but we do accept donations. Help us bring more targeted, life-saving treatments to children battling deadly brain tumors," the group said in an email.

Photographers are also welcome to shoot in the field. Professional photographers who are planning shoots in the field, for engagements or other events, should obtain a Sunflower Shutterbug Pass, which supports Maria's Sunflower Fields of Hope.
