Flower Fields in South Dakota (2026)

Flowers in South Dakota typically run May through Sep, with peak picking in Jul–Aug. Cooler northern and higher-elevation farms tend to ripen a week or two later than the southern part of the state, so the Jul–Aug window is a middle estimate rather than a date to plan a single trip around.

This page lists 17 farms, stands and markets in South Dakota that report flowers to the USDA — sorted A–Z, each with the crops it grows, its picking window and a map. 5 of them publish opening hours that include today.

Most South Dakota U-pick farms are walk-up, but popular ones sell out of ripe fruit on weekend mornings during Jul–Aug. Call ahead or check the farm's page for the day's picking conditions — many post a daily 'open / picked out' status of their own.

Many South Dakota growers accept them. Farms and markets that take SNAP / EBT, WIC or Senior FMNP vouchers, or that accept cards, carry those tags on their listing — they come from the farm's own USDA record. For anything the record doesn't state, such as whether dogs are welcome, call ahead.
