Sledd's is the perfect place to pick sunflowers! It is located in Mims, about 45 minutes from east Orlando. The flowers were B E A UTIFUL. They also smelled amazing! Some helpful tips: You can bring your own but they also have scissors to use as well. This is a only place so make sure you have some in hand. Make sure you check their FB page out for their daily hours. Bring a container and water for them as they wilt rather quickly. Especially if you pick the skinner stemmed ones. There are lots of bugs . If you're not into nature in a buggy sense, this may not be the place for you! There is a porta potty available for use! read more

I took a drive to get some u pick strawberries, followed directions and found a sign on us1 that said shedd's u pick strawberries drove back road and no signs no nothing. I stopped and asked a neighbor about it and they said they didn't think they did strawberries anymore. I left with no strawberries and no evidence of the place even existing. read more

This place is so gorgeous! I've been to this sunflower maze three different years and I love when the sunflowers are super tall, but it's also so amazing when you can look out into the field of them in full bloom. Now, this is clearly in Florida, so in general I follow Sledd's Facebook page for hours and closure, obviously checking my own radar before I drive out. Another thing to note is these are flowers, which means bees are plentiful. I've never had an issue though it's safe to say, don't bother them and they won't bother you. However, if you are allergic I'd lay on the side of caution going. read more

Great place to go to get outdoors and take some nice photos with the family. The field is beautiful right now and the weather could not be more perfect! I am so happy when I go there. If you are quiet, you can hear the honey bees working. As mother nature controls the outcome of this field , it is best to check the farms facebook page. They are very upfront about the condition of the field. The flowers are medium height, and when freshly picked will last a while in a vase at home. Definitely created some special memories here. read more

Eh.... Specifically drive out from Orlando to pic some sunflowers and take pictures. Arrived JUST after noon. After driving down the insanely bumpy dirt road, we pulled in and were told they close at 12. Yes 12. Were told we could go in and have a quick walk through while the last few people were finishing up, but we still ended up having to pay the $5 entrance fee (each). After driving so far we just went ahead and did it. Now I'm no sunflower expert, but I thought they were about 5/6 feet tall. Maybe I was just wrong? Maybe it's the wrong time of year? I'm not sure, but these were about 2 feet tall. A few up to about 4 feet. You can pick your own and keep them, they are $2 each which really isn't that bad. Some others were doing a photo shoot, which is actually a pretty smart location. I'll update my review if I end up going back. Just make sure you check their times before making the drive! read more

Located about a mile off Burkholm Road, you know you're getting close once the blacktop ends, there's limited signage once you turn off US 1 but it's a straight shot and not easily missed. This is truly a "U want it U pick it" kind of place there are a few tomatoes and melons at the make shift shanty, but the good stuffs is in the fields. They have plenty of containers any thing from 5 gallon buckets to quart size paper crates, your bounty is dumped in plastic bags to take with you, so I suggest maybe bringing something to keep the produce cool in once you ready to leave. The owners were very friendly offering up advice and anything you need as long as it doesn't involve leaving the shady confines where they weigh it and you pay for it. The prices..... well it was five bucks for the quart of blackberries we picked, but you definitely know where the fruit is coming from since you picked it off the plants yourself. Unless you're immune from the effects of the Florida mid-day sun I suggest visiting early morning or late afternoon, but they do have bottled water and Gatorade for purchase if you find yourself a little parched after walking the sandy paths. I assume the selections change with the seasons so keep this in mind. read more

Visited here to go through the sunflower maze and pick veggies. The sunflower maze was beautiful and fun but HOT. No shade anywhere except at main little tent because it's a farm!!! I'd suggest bringing an umbrella and or hat for shade as you walk and pick. Friendly owner and good priced corn read more

Had a lot of fun doing their sunflower maze. It's so beautiful and unique! I recommend getting there early as more people start to show up after 11am. You can also pick sunflowers to take home for a small fee. I believe they also have veggie picking but we didn't do.The owners were very nice. It's not too far from Oviedo so we went there after. Other tips: Bring a hat and water! I'm not sure if they had a bathroom there? You pay under a big tent, it may be a porta potty if they have one. Oh, also there are a lot of bees in the maze, they mainly avoid people and are often on the flowers, but if you are allergic be prepared! read more

Their sunflower maze was a Kodak moment! We picked fresh rasberries, peppers, green beans, egg plant, okra, watermelon by the pound. It's was fun farming away from the high tech world. Houses nearby have signs out selling fresh eggs too. read more

Wow. So disappointing. Sunflowers were so short and the sunflower heads were no bigger than a daisy. Drove 40 minutes. So sad of a field. We were expecting large tall flowers. Not worth the $5 to get in. Check the schedule because the lady owner changes the time as she wants to. Nasty lady with a tude. Won't even going back. #sleddsfarm read more

Brought the grand kids. Wound up picking about 20 pounds of strawberries. They were big and juicy. Very easy to work and pick.

Amazing experience. Just beautiful. But do you guys think you could adjust the hours to be more golden-hour-friendly. Way better for my complexion! xx read more

My grandson and I picked blackberries there. We picked 5 pounds of beautiful plump berrirs in fewer than 30 minutes.
