Inside the farm you can see landscape like terraces or garden formed in different levels. By using this kind of farming technique, it enables the plants to grow freely and produce good quality flowers. The water supply is also properly distributed across the farm.

Flowers and colorful hats

Celosia flowers are in-demand in all year round in Cebu because of many festivals or holidays being celebrated in different part of the province. In Sirao, aside from poultry, corn and vegetables, flower farming is also one of the emerging sources of livelihood of the locals.

Sirao was a lonesome place before but now it is a tourist spot or destination. This is made possible by those hardworking farmers and farm owners who conceptualized and made the area a piece of heaven on earth.

The management of the farm is strictly imposing a “no stomping or picking of flowers” policy. But of course you are free to take pictures of it.

To wrap things up, my visit in Celosia Flower Farm was a huge success and gratifying. To see those rare flowers that cannot be seen in our backyard is a priceless experience. The farm is accessible but you should be very careful when driving because of the ups, downs, rugged, curves and uneven pavement of the road.
