Like last spring, the u-pick tulip experience is located at Ouimet Farms Adventure, known for its 7-acre corn maze and family-friendly activities. The tulip field is the creation of Mike Block and Sandra Bebbington-Block, who were inspired to recreate the beauty of Holland after a trip to the Netherlands.
They first brought their vision to life on their 5-acre property, home to a charming 180-year-old stone farmhouse and barn. After three successful seasons there, they’ve now partnered with Ouimet Farms to expand the experience for even more visitors in 2026.
Visitors can enjoy a U-Pick tulip experience, perfect for all ages, along with tons of kid-friendly attractions like tube slides, pedal karts, and gemstone mining.
The farm also features a market selling fresh produce and local goods, plus a farming museum with seasonal exhibits and historical artifacts. It’s a fun, photo-worthy outing with something for everyone.
The Vankleek Hill Tulip Fields is located at 63 Main St W, Vankleek Hill and is approximately 100 km from Ottawa. After your trip, explore Vankleek Hill.
Ontario’s famous Tulip Festival, Canadian Tulip Festival, runs from May 8 through 18 of this year in Ottawa.
