Illinois’ Favorite Adventure Farm Added Something New To Its 2024 Tulip Festival

Richardson Farm in Spring Grove, Illinois is home to the 'World's Largest Corn Maze' each Fall, but its Tulip Festival each Spring is something you HAVE to see too.

First Signs Of Spring in Illinois

Illinois was treated to a pretty mild winter this year, and signs of Spring are already starting to bloom everywhere you look!

While sitting outside enjoying the sunshine and my kids playing in the yard yesterday I noticed a few important things:

• The sound of birds chirping.
• The grass getting greener.
• Buds on trees.
• Tulips and daffodils beginning to pop out of the ground.

Those few little things have such an amazing power to lift the dark winter cloud that has been hanging over our heads, and if you really want to enjoy Spring in Illinois to the fullest this year, I know exactly where you need to go.

Richardson Farm in Spring Grove, Illinois' true claim to fame is the 28-acre corn maze and family-fun attractions they host every Fall, but their brand of farm fun isn't limited to just one season.

Every year thousands of people also visit Richardson farm for Christmas trees, sunflower fields in the summer, and tulip festival in the spring.

As I write this the opening date for Richardson Farm's 2024 Tulip Festival has not been announced yet, but I'm willing to be it will be opening sooner rather than later.
