Visit the Field
Maria’s Sunflower Field of Hope in Avon is expected to bloom in September for Childhood Cancer Awareness Month. Once in bloom, the field is open from sunup to sundown. Visit Maria's Shop at the field seven days a week from 10 am - 7 pm per volunteer staff availability. 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.
