Andrea Zonneveld of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, poses with a group of sunflowers that she picked with her mother at Pumpkin Valley Farm on Saturday during the two-day sunflower festival. The mother and daughter have been traveling across the United States for the last four years collecting sunflowers from different farms and festivals. This year they have visited Kentucky, New Jersey, Delaware and Maine and plan to visit Georgia, North Carolina and West Virginia this fall. The tradition began after the loss of the elder’s son, who she said would always bring home sunflowers for her.
