(1042)

Visit our gift shop, garden center and cafe. Originally a strawberry and melon farm in the 1920’s and 30’s, Lavender Ridge Farms is now home to a field of 1000 lavender plants, a walk through butterfly garden, several aviaries housing different birds, some farm animals and a ringtail lemur family. We invite you to visit our farm, have a lavender lunch in our café or bring a picnic. Shop our unique

gift shop that includes all of our handmade bath and body products plus enjoy shopping our plant nursery specializing in hardy perennials, lavender plants and seasonal color. The farm is staffed by knowledgeable friendly folks eager to talk to you. Spring 2022 we have renovated our lavender planting for future beautiful blooms. The original plants were on their seventh year and succumbed to the last two brutal winters and heavy spring rains. We will keep this page and our website updated on the progress of our new lavender plantings and the expected season for cutting. We look forward to your visit as the beauty changes monthly! Farm and Cafe are open March - October.

We’ve had our eyes on the lavender suspecting a later bloom time than the normal early June bloom. However, it doesn’t look like there will be blooms due to the extremely mild winter we experienced this past winter. Chilling hours during the winter have shown us to be pertinent to a good show of blooms. We will continue to monitor for any evidence of spikes emerging and will post if we see them.
This weekend we have a nice selection of perennials and annuals for your garden including 6 different hardy hibiscus, El Niño Chitalpas, Volcano Bush (Lespedeza) and many more. Come out and have a peaceful lunch under the canopy of trees, check out the gift shop and nursery. Visit the lemurs and stroll the butterfly garden too!

Can’t wait to see ya!
