Owners of an English farm are begging visitors to stop posing naked for pictures in their sunflower field

• A farm in England is begging visitors to stop posing nude with its sunflowers.
• The owner of the farm told CNN that there have been at least six incidents of nakedness recently.

The owners of an English farm are begging visitors to quit posing for naked pictures in its sunflower field.

In a Facebook post earlier this month, Stoke Fruit Farm — which is located off the southern coast of England on Hayling Island — made the request that visitors stay fully clothed when in their sunflower field.

"Reminder to all we are a family area and please keep your clothes on in the sunflowers!" the farm wrote on Facebook. "We are having a increase of reports of naked photography taking place and this must not happen during our public sessions please!"

The farm then promptly erected signs in its field that say "no public nudity," according to photos obtained by CNN.

CNN spoke to the owners of Stoke Fruit Farm, Sam Wilson and his sister Nette Petley.

Wilson said there have been at least six instances of public nudity among the flowers since the end of July when the field opened for visitors.

"We've always had people take risque pictures but this is the first year it's been a problem, which is why we've put signs up," Wilson told CNN. The farm staff had to put up the signs after some kids caught a peek of what was going on in the field, he said.

"We are a really free and happy farm but we just can't have nudity in public view," Wilson said, according to CNN.

Petley echoed Wilson's sentiment that the farm is a "really happy and fun place" that gives "you that empowering feeling."

"But it's about the people around and being respectful of that," Petley told CNN. "The site is huge and there are so many places that you can hide away without anyone finding you for over an hour, but these incidents were blatantly public."

Stoke Fruit Farm has 350 acres of land and produces wheat, peas, potatoes, pumpkins, squash, sweetcorn, hay, and sunflowers, according to CNN.

Wilson first planted the sunflowers with his then-fiancee behind the church where they married six years ago, intending to have their wedding surrounded by the sunflowers, but they didn't bloom in time, according to CNN. Instead, they sprang up while the couple was away on their honeymoon.

While they were gone, Wilson told CNN that Petley called him and said "People want to pick your flowers."

CNN reported at that point, Wilson and Petley set up an "honesty box for visitors," but the sunflowers have since gained massive popularity over the years.

Now, paying visitors, who travel far and wide to see the field, can walk among two million sunflowers in the massive 50-acre field, Wilson told CNN.
