Seasonal pick-your-own sunflower operation on the MacGregor family's (Casey and Beau MacGregor) dairy farm at Crooked Brook, near Dardanup WA, about 25km from Bunbury and ~189km south of Perth. Visitors pay a per-bucket donation to snip their own sunflower stems, alongside a walk-through photo experience through sunflower rows planted in a maze-like layout; running annually since at least 2022 and covered by Farm Weekly (WA rural press) plus regional travel/lifestyle media and viral TikTok/Instagram posts. The operator's own site now also has an 'Event Space' page, suggesting the venue is used for event hire outside sunflower season. Direct fetch of the official website was not possible in this session (tooling/network restriction), so address and pricing detail rely on corroborated secondary sources rather than a first-hand site read — worth a manual spot-check of current-year dates and pricing before publishing.

Frequently asked questions

How much does picking cost at The Paddock Crooked Brook?

Here is what The Paddock Crooked Brook has told us about cost: Reported as a per-bucket donation model for snipping your own sunflower stems — $10, $20 or $30 depending on bucket size (consistent across multiple secondary sources). Could not independently confirm current pricing via a direct read of the official pricing page in this session. Treat that as the shape of the pricing rather than a quote: entry fees and per-kilo rates are both seasonal.

What can you pick at The Paddock Crooked Brook, and when?

The Paddock Crooked Brook is listed for Sunflowers, with typical picking around January (short ~10-day window timed to peak bloom; exact dates vary year to year and are announced closer to the time). Seasons move with the weather each year, so treat those windows as a guide and check what's ripe before you drive out.
