One Day. One Farm. Thousands of Peonies. The Rotary Club of Maryville is proud to present this exclusive, once-a-year opportunity to experience the breathtaking beauty of Hollingsworth Peonies, a world-renowned peony hybridizer and one of the largest peony farms in North America.
This is the only day of the year the farm is open to the public. Guests are invited behind the gates for a rare and unforgettable experience among acres upon acres of peonies at the absolute peak of their bloom. Hollingsworth Peonies is known internationally for its extensive collection of peonies. Guests are encouraged to slow down and savor the experience - wander through endless rows of blooms, capture stunning photos and enjoy time with friends and family.
Bring a blanket, relax among the flowers and enjoy picnic-style dining with meal and vendor options available on site. This is more than a tour - it is a rare celebration of beauty, history and horticultural excellence, offered just once each year. And, hey, our tour would make a terrific Mother's Day gift! For more information or to purchase tickets, please visit us online.
