The Farm - A Place to Wander, Create & Escape
Barnwood Farms - U-Pick Flower Fields & Venue E290 Johnson Road Waupaca, WI 54981
U-Pick Flowers
Since opening in the summer of 2021, our U-Pick flower fields have grown into one of Waupaca’s most beloved seasonal traditions. With each year, we’ve expanded, planting even more varieties so you can wander through rows of stately sunflowers, delicate cosmos, elegant dahlias, and colorful zinnias, choosing stems that speak to you.
In 2025, we’re taking it even further—more flowers, more space, and more ways to make it your own. Whether you’re designing a bouquet, capturing golden-hour photos, or simply soaking in the fresh air, Barnwood Farms U-Pick is a place to slow down, get creative, and leave with something beautiful.
We offer U-Pick flower experiences all season long, with fresh blooms ready from summer through early fall. Come for a peaceful morning amongst the flowers, a fun family outing, or a spontaneous date idea—every visit is different, and every bouquet is uniquely yours.
Located just outside Waupaca, Barnwood Farms is a must-visit destination for locals and visitors alike. Spending the weekend on the Chain O’ Lakes? Camping at Hartman’s Creek? Just looking for something different to do? Our U-Pick flower farm offers the perfect escape. We welcome guests from Stevens Point, Appleton, Oshkosh, the Fox Cities, and beyond—because no trip to Waupaca is complete without a stroll through the flowers.
