Tulip Season at @burnsidefarms ends in 5 days so I Tulip Season at @burnsidefarms ends in 5 days so I recommend visiting as soon as possible. Here’s a few tips for visiting. 💐 bring a bottle/vase with water on it to keep your tulips alive on your way home ( you receive 5 tulips per ticket) 💐 Wear shoes you don’t mind getting dirty. 💐 Baskets are available to use but I prefer brining my own. 💐 Visit Thursday-Sunday to catch some dawn images. 💐 Wear reef-friendly sunscreen. #tulipfestival #tulipseason #dcgardens #virginiaisforlovers❤️
