Our take
They hand you clippers and a wheelbarrow and point you at the field. No festival attached, no admission gate, and small children treat it as an expedition anyway. Late afternoon is the best version, when the light goes gold and the after-school crowd has gone home for dinner.

What to know before you go
Late afternoon is the sweet spot: golden light and fewer families in the field.
