daffodils

The Candor NY Chamber of Commerce and Candor Forward are hosting The Candor Daffodil Festival at the Candor Ball Fields on May 5th to Support the American Cancer Society and The Resource Center of Candor.

The festival will feature live music all day, food, wine and beer tastings and lots of activities for kids and adults alike. The festival runs from 10 AM to 5 PM.

Each spring, the Zamoiski family opens their fields for two weekends as a living tribute to Joy Zamoiski, who passed in 2014. The Zamoiski children honored their mother with a surprise in celebration of her 85th birthday. A host of 1,000 Dutch Master bulbs in classic yellow that spelled out her first name, 'Joy' appeared on the rocky hillside. Over the years they have added words spelled out in daffodils such as PEACE, LOVE and WELCOME.

Spring 2016 marked the unveiling of their latest creation in daffodils. It is a breast cancer ribbon made with 1600 Pink Ribbon daffodils, and they donate 10% of the proceeds to cancer research.

The Candor Daffodil Festival is a 42,000 daffodil extravaganza.
