Genuine hand-cut u-pick sunflower operation at 15 Head Road, Wandin East, corroborated by the business's own Facebook/Instagram post ("Our sunflower field is located at Head Road, Wandin East") plus five independent local write-ups (mamma knows east, Melbourne Playgrounds, School Holidays Australia, Secret Melbourne). Not a duplicate of any farm already on file for this region -- none of the existing Wandin East/Wandin North entries are sunflower operations. One source (mumslittleexplorers.com) gives a conflicting address (460 Fulford Road, Wandin North); this is contradicted by every other source including the operator's own social posts and is treated as an error. Caution: the farm's own website and Instagram currently state it is closed for the entire 2026 season and plans to return only "early in 2027" -- this is a longer hiatus than normal seasonal downtime, so operating status should be re-checked closer to any planned 2027 opening before treating this as a live, bookable listing.
