(WBBM NEWSRADIO) — Morgan Vicari, who runs Vicari Farms with her husband in Lowell, Ind., wrote on Facebook that their farm grows pumpkins, sweet corn, and sunflowers.
Turns out, they grow a lot of sunflowers — so much so that Vicari Farms is extending a gesture it made back when people were cooped up during the worst of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Vicari announced that, this week, her farm is giving away thousands of sunflowers.
“Please come pick my flowers if you have an elderly neighbor you can deliver to, or someone who just had a baby, or just someone who doesn’t have the means to get flowers for themselves,” Vicari wrote on Facebook.
Vicari estimated that there are 10,000 – 50,000 sunflowers on her farm.
She said she hopes 50,000 people show up throughout the week.
“It’s like the wave effect,” Vicari said. “One person starts something and it’s almost like the line in Starbucks, you know, the next person pays for the next person and so forth. Opening that door of opportunity just allows people to be the light in somebody else’s life, and that’s a great thing”.
Those who just want them for themselves are welcome, too, she says.
“It doesn’t matter the circumstances, please use my farm to bless someone else,” Vicari wrote on Facebook.
The farm is at 17006 Tapper St., Lowell, Ind.
