3 100% Instagrammable field activities

With harvest time upon us, now's the time to tour the fields of Laval. In addition to supporting local businesses, you'll have the chance to fill your basket with pretty flowers and fresh produce, enjoy a fun activity and capture all those beautiful moments with your camera. All with family and friends!

The Marineau Floral Adventure Festival

This Festival at Marineau Farm is a must for your insta this year! Their field of nearly a million colorful flowers and grasses is sure to amaze you! It's the perfect opportunity to create personalized bouquets for your loved ones or to decorate your home. Their floral interpretation center will teach you the technique for drying your bouquet and keeping it forever. Needless to say, it's also one of the best places to take your best summer photos!

When visiting with family or friends, have fun in the hybrid maze of corn and sunflowers with an investigative game. Take advantage of the opportunity to picnic, enjoy a delicious homemade ice cream, take a break under the big top or even try out the giant games. As an added bonus, you can enjoy a singer-songwriter performance on Friday and Saturday evenings.

U-pick flowers and giant corn maze at Ferme Forget

In addition to picking strawberries, raspberries, blueberries and squash, you can also pick flowers at the Ferme Forget. That's right! Take advantage of the opportunity to spruce up your bouquet (and your Instagram photos!) with sunflowers and zinnias, those pretty, warmly-colored pompons. But you'll have to be quick: they only bloom in August. Don't miss your chance!

Until the end of September, try to find your way through the giant corn maze in search of the quiz stations. For a completely different atmosphere, opt for the night labyrinth on Friday evenings, by reservation only. Don't forget your rain boots!

Nature Center

We had to include the gardens of the Nature Center on the list! It's a paradise for couples, friends and families alike, and admission is free! Bring a picnic and soak up the enchanting atmosphere. Take advantage of the gazebo and brightly colored flower gardens to take photos worthy of your Instagram account.

The Nature Center also lends itself to a host ofrecreational and educational activities: hiking, biking, in-line skating, kayaking, canoeing, plant greenhouses, mini-farm and water games.

Enjoy your visit!
