After a long walk, wandering around 13 hectares picnic groove, we headed in or next destination in a Sunflower Farmville. I haven't been to any flower farm, which is why I was a bit excited while we were traveling. From the Picnic groove, it was more or less five kilometers away. The road was curved, and several blind spots were to be passed. One wrong move, and you might say goodbye to mother earth if you fall from the cliff. Thus, to avoid untoward incidents, local government places warning signs.
Though if you had noticed in that dangerous curve was a scenic view of Taal Volcano/Lake. Did you spot it? If not, here it is;
I Took this photo when we parked before the blind spot as the driver needed to check his Bokyo.
Even that danger in the falling debris area looks like this;
Kudos to the local government for resolving the problem without compromising the beauty of the place.
What can I say? Sometimes beauty can bring danger. LOL.
After a few minutes, we arrived at our destination! As I checked my phone, I felt disappointed that the battery left was 19%. So, all pictures taken in this blog were from dying battery power.
Entering the farm will great you a free brewed coffee as an inclusion in the entrance fee you pay, amounting to $2. Hehe, just not perfect timing, as it was pretty hot, so only a few chose to get a cup.
After we settled the payment, the husband and I started to walk around.
In front of the coffee area, you will find a heart shape arched adorned with sunflowers. Below is where you can find the farm's name, decorated in a wood slab. Thinking my phone might power off anytime, we pose for a picture as a remembrance.

On my right is where you can find the photo booth.
Tips: An in-house photographer is here, and you can ask for his assistance. You may print the photos from his camera, and each cost almost $5. Another choice? It could be three pictures for $10, size was adjusted.
While in our front was this open cottage where you can sit and take a rest for a while for free.
It was built under the shade of a Mango tree. Want some?
We also noticed this farm was an accommodating and ideal place, even with kids, as they built a playground. Sometimes we couldn't expect kids to appreciate flowers and nature's beauty. Having this place was the best way for them to enjoy it too.
The playground was spacious enough to accommodate several kids to try various activities such as; trampoline, swing, and slides.
Some good spots where you can take some Instagram-able pictures are a few walks away from the playground.
Want to sit here?
Or is this a red chair? 😆
Others might say, so, where are the sunflowers? I just waited a while as I was still walking, checking everything that caught my attention.
Hey, we spotted the area for Video-oke!
It was not working because of the pandemic, but the area around the cottage was calming.
Here is what you will see if you are sitting there.
Yes, yes, besides this one area where beautiful sunflowers are planted. You may sit in that pink chair and have an excellent background for your social media reels.
This was only the first plot of sunflowers. A few meters away from here is where you can find more plots.
Yet, when the husband and I reached the area, only the one portion was in bloom. In the other part, the field was already empty and seemed newly plowed.
Across, flowers are almost dying, and if I am right, this is the time to harvest seeds for replanting.
We can also see a plot with healthy and young sunflowers that may start blooming after several weeks.
Still, we are lucky enough as there are areas with sunflowers in perfect bloom. This is probably the farm strategy; they couldn't plant all simultaneously, right? Or else there would be a time what could be seen here are empty fields. Unlike this one there is #alwaysflower.
Are you tired from walking? Want to have some rest here?
