Mark your calendars, invite your friends, and come make memories with us at Wildflower Fest 2026!
We're so excited to announce our 2nd Annual Wildflower Fest is going to be bigger and better than ever! What's new for 2026? More local vendors to shop, more delicious food trucks, new large designated parking area, expanded wildflower fields and an even more breathtaking pollinator habitat. Join us on Labor Day for a day celebrating nature, community, and all the beauty Southern Illinois has to offer. Stroll the blooming wildflowers, support over 42 local small businesses, enjoy amazing food, explore our free wildflower trails, and create your own $10 u-pick flower bouquet. Admission is free, so bring the whole family! If you've never experienced Blackberry Hollow Farm in full bloom, this is the perfect time. Our pollinator habitat will be bursting with butterflies, bees, and thousands of wildflowers—it's one of the most beautiful times of the year.
