The fest is set to end on Sunday. When it comes to something that makes her feel peaceful and happy, Karen Nicklaus says there’s nothing better than seeing springtime flowers.

The Mother’s Day Flower Walk, which began on Saturday, will continue from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Sunday at the farm, 37W446 Fabyan Parkway. It includes 10 specially-created outdoor flower-scapes for those who bought a ticket, which also includes a specialty beverage and a baked dessert.

“We plant thousands of gorgeous – all varieties – of flowers and we just kind of wanted to do something special in the springtime to honor her and let people know we’re here all four seasons,” she said. Live string music was heard as visitors on Saturday strolled along the path that led to the various displays.

Michelle Pfister of Batavia said having one of the flower-scapes at the farm versus a bouquet for Mother’s Day “would be pretty nice.” Dianne Valentino of Bartlett came with her daughter and grandson and declared the 10 stations at Windy Acres Farm to be “beautiful. We come here for every occasion.”
