This Spring, it’s hard not to love New England!

Usually, we New Englanders are served up difficult weather this time of year, ranging from snowstorms to days in the high-eighties. This year mother nature blessed us with a tame winter – and an even tamer early spring – which has made for the most gorgeous spring blossoms! 

Daffodil blossoms are the most popular spring plant in our region. You’ll often see fields of daffodils adorning front yards and wooden-built fences this time of year. They’re wicked easy to grow because they require low mantience. 

With bright yellow petals and long green stems, daffodils are especially incredible to see when grown in large groups. For anyone visiting New England in search of a daffodil field this spring, our crew has compiled a list breaking down where to spot the sunny blooms.

The list below includes daffodil festivals, events, public fields, and pay-to-enter gardens all adorned with the spring flower.
