Are Restrooms available during the festival?
Two portable restrooms will be available for use.
Will the lavender be in bloom during the festival?
Lavender typically blooms in this area between the end of May and the middle of June. Providing Mother Nature does her job, the lavender should be in bloom.
We have between 500-600 plants, several of which are two years old (many of our oldest plants did not survive the past two winters). They are greening up and should put on a great show. Lavender reaches its peak maturity at 3-5 years, so our plants still have some filling out to do. However it is beautiful and smells wonderful.
