Visit the Field

Maria’s Sunflower Field of Hope in Avon is planned to bloom sometime in the end of September for Childhood Cancer Awareness Month. We recommend staying tuned in to our social media and website for any updates to this information. To volunteer at Maria's shop, click here.

There is no fee to visit the fields, but we do accept donations as they help us bring more targeted, life-saving treatments to children battling deadly brain tumors. Every dollar you donate brings us one step closer to a cure.
