Peak bloom: We picked our own flowers at this tulip farm outside Toronto (VIDEO)
There are very few things in life worth waking up early for on the weekend, but the tulips at this Ontario farm seem like a pretty good reason.
TASC Tulip Farm is a 25-acre farm in Fenwick, a community located near Niagara Falls. You might not relish the hour and a half drive from downtown Toronto, but it’s worth it once you drive up to the farm and see the rows of rainbow-coloured tulips.

According to a representative for the farm, the tulips are currently at peak bloom and, judging from the display of bright colours, now is the best time to visit.

However, since tulips are partial to cold weather, Ontario’s warm weather means that the tulips won’t be around for very long. In fact, the farm will be closing on May 22.
Each admission ticket allows you to pick ten tulips. Visitors are encouraged to take a bucket by the entrance and choose their blooms. Since the farm grows 82 varieties, it’s not an easy choice â some might be your familiar supermarket variety, while others are rare.
