Trask Family Farms, Castle Hayne

About Trask Family Farms

Trask Family Farms is a 35-acre working farm in Castle Hayne where visitors pick their own flowers, navigate mazes, and explore seasonal attractions. The specialty u-pick flower field lets guests choose from four container sizes, select their favorite blooms with provided shears, and create custom bouquets from premium cut flowers. A corn maze and sunflower maze challenge visitors during the appropriate season, while a pumpkin patch offers seasonal harvesting. The farm also grows tomatoes, sweet corn, melons, peppers, and other produce available at the stand. A barn features homemade treats including watermelon and cantaloupe sorbet alongside regional products. The farm hosts seasonal workshops in watercolor painting and cyanotype printing led by local artists, plus special events like wildflowers and wine tastings in the flower fields. Tickets for mazes and u-pick experiences are sold online through the farm's website. The operation, family-owned since 1899 and now spanning six generations, welcomes visitors with photo opportunities throughout the grounds.
