Carlsbad’s upscale picnic company offers an elevated outdoors experience with curated bites, live music, and stunning views of The Flower Fields and San Diego coastline
Building on the success of last year’s event, PICNICS + FLOWERS is back and promises to be even bigger and better. Attendees can expect an elevated pop-up picnic featuring more shade structures, increased semi-private picnic spaces, reserved parking, a private entrance, complimentary wagon rides, an expanded menu, live music, and a family-fun zone featuring interactive games.
“We are excited to bring back PICNICS + FLOWERS for its second year with several exciting additions to take this already idyllic setting to the next level,” says Lauren Kimmons, owner of Pop Up Picnic Co. “It’s a special experience for our guests to enjoy curated bites and sips in a stunning natural setting while enjoying live music and views of the Pacific Ocean off in the distance.”
The culinary offerings at this year’s event are set to delight attendees. Guests will receive an individual box containing a tasting menu with a variety of options to choose from, including Cucumber Chive sandwiches, Chickpea Smash sandwiches, Ham and Tomato Sandwiches, three seasonal side salad choices, mini charcuterie, and delightful fruit pies on a stick for dessert. Refreshing beverages will accompany the delectable bites such as hibiscus-lemon aguas frescas and mint-infused water. Children will be served a child-friendly meal comprising cheese sandwiches, fruit, and dessert.
While the charming picnics have limited seating times of one hour (from 11 am to 2 pm , guests are encouraged to linger and explore The Flower Fields at their leisure and enjoy their complimentary wagon rides. Games at the tables add to the entertainment, allowing attendees to savor the experience with family and friends. For those bringing their children, a family-fun zone will be open for play.
