SEE US AT LAVENDER FESTIVAL!
The Lavender Festival has expanded the lavender industry in the Sequim-Dungeness Valley and increased agricultural, cultural, and culinary tourism on the North Olympic Peninsula. Between 1995 and 1998, eight lavender farms began planting, and currently there are close to 40 established lavender farms in the area.
Farms sell wholesale or retail. Some entertain visitors. Others propagate plant starts in large greenhouses; make products in the barn or ship out the dried herb in bulk to local cottage crafters.
Lavender Festival attracts thousands of visitors over the three day weekend in July. A street fair, craft booths and local entertainment, as well as tours of local lavender farms, are all free admission. We hope you will stop by the Peninsula Friends of Animals booth to say “hello” – our world-famous potholders are always available for purchase!
