Cut-Your-Own-Flowers Experience

Open August & September at Mapleton Acres
Just north of Fergus + Elora, and a short drive from Kitchener-Waterloo 

Ever imagined strolling through a flower field, designing a bouquet filled with all your favourite colours and flowers?

Whether you're carving out some solo time, catching up with friends, or looking for a sweet little adventure with your kids, our u-pick flower field is the perfect summer spot. Picture sunshine, fresh air, over 90 rows of flowers, and a peaceful quiet you just can’t find in town.

When you arrive, we’ll set you up with a pair of snips and our signature Mapleton Acres u-pick flower cup—perfect for gathering around 30 stems. Then it’s your time to wander: take it slow, explore what’s in bloom, and cut what catches your eye.

We’ll be nearby if you’d like help or have questions—and we’re always happy to share tips on how to harvest your flowers at just the right stage for the longest vase life at home. Whether you're new to flower picking or passionate about cut flowers, there’s something magical about creating your own bouquet, straight from the field.

Visiting with a group?

If you're coming with a group of 6 or more—or looking to host a private event for 10+—we'd love to help make it extra special. Reach out to us at hello@mapletonacres.com or fill in the contact form [here] to start planning.

The Finer Details:

• Recommended for ages 12+ to cut their own flowers. Younger flower fans are welcome to join in, but must be paired with someone 18+ for safety.

• Children under 12—whether tagging along or cutting alongside a grown-up—are free of charge.

• Joining a friend but not cutting? General admission is $10+HST for guests over 12 who aren’t making their own bouquet. Tickets can be purchased on arrival.

• Pre-booking is strongly recommended. A limited number of cut-your-own flower experiences are available each day and can not be guaranteed without a reservation.

• We won’t count your stems on the way out (not our vibe—but violators will be composted). That said, please don’t overstuff your cup. Your flowers will thank you for the extra breathing room and a good drink of water.

• Dress for the field. The flower field is real, working-farm terrain—uneven, sometimes muddy, and best navigated with sturdy, closed-toe footwear.

• Washroom facilities available on-site.

• Please leave furry friends at home. We love animals, but for the safety of our guests and flowers, only a service dog is permitted in the field (heads-up appreciated if you’re bringing a service dog). 

Weather + Cancellation Policy:

Tickets are non-refundable, but they can be transferred to a friend—just email us at hello@mapletonacres.com to update the name on your booking. If we need to close the flower field due to weather, we’ll contact you directly with the option to rebook or receive a gift card for the full value of your ticket.

Whether you're here to reconnect, recharge, or share the experience with your little ones, we can't wait to welcome you to the flower field.
