A NEW summer attraction perfect for Instagram photo opportunities is coming to Worcester this summer.
The Sunflowers at Gwillam's is a new attraction looking to open next month, where people can take a walk through a field of sunflowers, take pictures and learn more about pollination.
Clare Campbell, and her fiance Adam Gwillam, are behind the project, which will be opening next door to Gwillam's Farm Shop on Ombersley Road, Bevere, Worcester.
Clare said both her and Adam are really excited at the opportunity to open the field to the public.

She said:" Our sunflower field is a production field so all of the flowers will be harvested, but we thought before that time comes it would be cool to allow the public to come and look around and take some pictures.
"We will be cutting a trail so that people can follow their way around the field and learn a bit more about pollination whilst they do.
"We put it on Facebook and we were quite surprised at the amount of interest we have already so we are certainly very excited."
Clare and Adam will be donating a portion of all the proceeds to two local charities in the Worcester area.
Clare said: "We have chosen Acorns and St Richard's Hospice as our two charities to support.
"We will soon be setting up an online booking system where people can get their tickets to enter the field.
"We want to make sure we are doing this in the best way possible and not have the field too crowded to give everyone a better experience."

The sunflowers are expected to be in bloom for approximately five to six weeks, with volunteers and family members working alongside Clare and Adam.
There will also be the opportunity to buy fresh sunflowers from the field on your visit.
Clare and Adam are hoping to open the field on Friday, August 12, from 10am - 5pm on Friday to Monday.
More days may become available in the near future.
