Maryville Rotarians are thrilled to host again this year an exclusive tour of one of the largest peony farms in North America, right in the heart of Nodaway County.
Along with Hollingsworth Peonies, a world-renowned peony hybridizer and grower, the Maryville Rotary Club will sponsor a farm tour Saturday, May 17 and Sunday, May 18 with ticket sales to support Rotary causes. This rare opportunity marks the second time in recent years the farm has welcomed visitors. and it will be the only time it opens to the public in 2025.
This special event serves as the Maryville Rotary Club's spring fundraiser which allows the organization to fund post-secondary scholarships for students plus provide vital support to local food and clothing programs assisting the most vulnerable members of the Nodaway County communities. The farm, located northwest of Wilcox, will feature thousands of peonies in full bloom.
"We are absolutely delighted to host this one-of-a-kind event right here in our community," Maryville Rotary Club Vice President Skye Pournazari said in a statement. "It promises to be a joyful and memorable adventure set on a breathtaking, expansive working flower farm; an experience you truly won't want to miss!"
