U-Pick Lavender

We open the field to the public each year when the lavender field blooms and offer u pick lavender sessions Wednesday through Sunday. We provide the tools and supplies needed to cut your lavender bunches. Bring a picnic lunch, take your time, and enjoy the field and the view while you are here.

We offer fresh-cut lavender bunches ready to purchase in our gift shop and dried lavender year-round. After the close of the lavender u-pick season, the remaining lavender is harvested to be distilled, dried, and used in our lavender products.

Visit our events page for more u-pick information.
