The Flower Fields Foundation

For over sixty years, Mother Nature has transformed the rolling hills of North San Diego County into one of the most spectacular and coordinated displays of natural color and beauty anywhere in the world. The nearly fifty acres of Giant Tecolote Ranunculus flowers that make up The Flower Fields at Carlsbad Ranch® in Carlsbad, California, are in bloom for approximately six to eight weeks each year – from early March through early May – literally bringing the famous fields back to life. This annual burst of color, which has become part of the area’s local heritage, also is one of nature’s official ways of announcing the arrival of spring here in Southern California.

The Flower Fields Foundation is dedicated to providing annual support to The Flower Fields at Carlsbad Ranch through volunteers, as well as corporate and community philanthropic giving. The Foundation’s goal is for sustainable educational, scientific and charitable programs. Its vision is to provide “hands-on” educational programs for children, charitable grants for low-income schools, an increase in learning environments, special tours for family members of all ages and a scientific understanding of agricultural issues and their historical impact on Northern San Diego County.
