Get your insta posts ready—tulips in NJ are coming soon to a field near you, bringing a bit of Holland into the Garden State. And if you’ve never been to a picturesque tulip field, this is your chance to revel in nature, bring home a bouquet, and simply soak in the rolling countryside, making you feel like you’re somewhere far away. The fields won’t be open until late March, but if you want to guarantee your spot (or have something springy to look forward to), buy tickets when they go on sale (spoiler alert—they do sell out). Scroll down to the farms known for stopping and smelling tulips in NJ. (featured photo credit: taken at Holland Ridge Farms by @eaststreetphotography)
