Wichita on the Cheap

Live the Good Life for Less & Never Miss a Deal

Kansas Maze Sunflower Festival

Sharing is caring!

The Kansas Maze is located on the Gaebbert family farm in Buhler, KS, which is about 50 min from Wichita. They have more than 600,000 Sunflowers for you to see. Each year, they have a multi-week festival whenever the Sunflowers bloom, so the dates are never exactly set until the flowers are in  bloom. 

Who else is ready to take a sunny stroll and check out some sunflowers? It’s the perfect time of year to soak up some sunshine and appreciate one of nature’s most vibrant gifts. There is a reason Kansas is known as the Sunflower State, and this festival is one of the reasons! This is a must-see.
