Water & Wine Weekly • Penn Yan, New York • August 3-9, 2026 • Issue 10
Beautiful Blooms & Lake Views
There’s something timeless about walking through rows of vibrant flowers on a warm Finger Lakes summer day. At LaBarr Farms, visitors are invited to slow down, soak in the beauty of the countryside, awe at the lake views, and create a custom bouquet with their U-Pick Flower experience.
The flower rows are elegantly marked with the type of bloom. Let your eye guide you through the rows and snip each bloom that catches your attention. As you wander the rows, buzzing bees and floating butterflies nestle on the blooms.
This is an experience that appeals to everyone—from couples looking for a romantic outing to families making summer memories, photographers searching for stunning backdrops, and anyone who simply enjoys spending time outdoors.
