Rainey Fields Family Farm

09/01/2025

We put so much heart into preparing the fields this season, but unfortunately, heavy deer damage has left them far from the standard of beauty and experience we want to share with you. Because of this, we’ve made the very hard decision not to open the sunflower fields this year.

If you’ve already purchased tickets, refunds will be issued automatically in the next couple of days—no action is needed on your part.

We are deeply saddened by this outcome, as we know many of you looked forward to visiting this year. Thank you for your kindness, understanding, and continued support as we regroup.

We’re committed to restoring the fields and look forward to welcoming you back to something truly special next season with improved protection 🌻💛

Some memories are louder than fireworks.

Running between sunflowers
Picnics on the grass
That quiet country drive back with your windows down
The look on your kid’s face when they see fields stretching to the sky

At Rainey Fields, we grow more than flowers we grow traditions.

Make this your year to start a new one.
Bring your people. Breathe the fresh air.
Get wonderfully lost in the Sunflower Way.

No Service. No Scroll. Just Sunflowers.

There’s no cell signal out here. And that’s kind of the point.

At Rainey Fields, you're far from the noise. It’s quiet enough to hear the bees. Peaceful enough that you notice the way the flowers follow the sun.

Come walk The Sunflower Way. Sit still in a Golden Nook.
Talk face-to-face. Watch the breeze move through the blooms. Feel the ground under your feet.

You don’t need a signal to feel connected out here.

🚜 Farm-Powered Friday: 1992 Buffalo 6R30 Row Crop Planter

This 6-row, 30-inch Buffalo plateless row crop planter was built for durability and straightforward fieldwork. We use it for planing our sunflowers! Designed primarily for ridge-till systems, it’s equipped with:

- Plateless seed meters for reliable seeding without needing to change parts when changing crops.

- Simple spring-loaded down pressure for consistent depth control

- Ground-driven metering — no electronics, just mechanical precision.

No GPS, no monitors—just mechanical consistency and solid engineering.

🚜 Farm Powered Fridays | 1977 John Deere 4430

The 4430 is our main tractor — and though it rolled off the line in 1977, it’s still powering through the big jobs here at Rainey Fields. We brought it on not long after launching the farm, and it’s been a workhorse ever since.

What it does for us:
Pulls the disk and planter
Handles heavy lifting and ripping when breaking in new fields
Pulls our 18ft Brush Mower

Specs:
Engine: 6.6L John Deere Turbocharged Diesel
~125 PTO HP
Quad-Range 16-speed
Weighs 11,500 lbs!

They don’t make them like this anymore — and we’re glad they don’t have to.

Welcome to Farm Powered Fridays — where we give you a peek behind the scenes at the equipment that powers Rainey Fields growth.

Each Friday, we’ll spotlight one of the workhorses that help us prep sunflower fields, build out our dream, and do the dirty jobs no one sees. Let’s kick things off!

The sunflower field is getting prepped! 🌻 We're disking the ground at Rainey Fields to get it ready for planting. It won’t be long before these rows are filled with tall blooms and golden views. We can’t wait to welcome you this fall!

And don’t forget—Father’s Day is this weekend! Here’s to all the dads who lead the way, lend a hand, and love without limits. 💛
