Styer’s Peonies in Chadds Ford is an epic farm that features 25 acres of peonies, writes Emily Kovach for PA Eats.

You can purchase bulk peonies and bouquets on the website, but you should walk or drive through Styer’s in the second half of May during its annual Peony Festival when you can experience 100 varieties of peonies in peak bloom.
