Join us for our 3rd annual "Lavender Harvest Festival", where guests stroll through thousands of blooming lavenders across acres of purple and white! There will be U-CUT LAVENDER, LIVE music, an "Artisans' Marketplace, lavender-inspired food + drink, lavender + pain relief products, a petting farm with riding ponies and more! Bring along the entire family for a scent-sational mid-summer's day!
Enjoy expedited parking and admission, online ticket sales to reduce waiting times, online-only "will-call" for our farm products with online ticket purchase, 8 acres for parking (please carpool if possible), a complete petting farm with 2 riding ponies for the children, 100+ artisan vendors, more restrooms, more food options, more shaded seating for guests and many more lavender products for your home and body!
We have protected our crop this past winter; therefore, expect our most spectacular display to be on display for our festival! U-CUT LAVENDER bundles are priced at $10 and will be available immediately. There will be large vertical flags marked, "U-CUT" to lead guests to the designated U-CUT area. Here, you must purchase a unique band for $10 and fit as many lavender stalks in it as possible. Scissors will be provided. Guests are encouraged to bring baskets for multiple bundle purchases. In order for guests to have the most photogenic experience possible, U-CUT is only available in marked locations. The rest of the fields are for family and friends to enjoy and take memorable photos in. Why pick your own lavender? Because lavender bundles stay aromatic for years! Simply hang them upside down in your home for up to 2 weeks to dry. Enjoy them as dried floral arrangments for many years, as they keep their color, form and scent!
We GROW over 15 varieties of lavender and you will be able to purchase lavender plants from several top-performing varieties in purple and white. We offer a collection of lavender products for skin and hair care, home, pain relief and pets! We will also have lavender lemonade, lavender jams and blueberry lavender scones! All self-care products are crafted on-site. Our products will be adjacent to the entrance of the festival, as well as sprinkled throughout the Marketplace under purple tents. You may even purchase products before the festival and skip the lines in our "WILL-CALL" tent, also adjacent to the entrance! This option is only available to those purchasing tickets online. Don't go home without taking something LAVENDER with you!
Our "Artisans' Marketplace" is where you will find LIVE music with more than 100 vendors offering locally-made products. Vendors will be offering painted art, vintage finds, rusty treasures, home + garden decor, chic clothing, handmade jewelry, signs, pet products, candles, baked goods, gourmet food, face painting, henna body art and much more! No two vendors will be alike! More than 95% of vendors offer their hand-made products here. The intent is for this shopping experience to be as unique and diverse as possible. Be on the lookout for vendors incorporating lavender into their products and food!
Children LOVE lavender, but they also love PONIES! A complete petting + feeding farm with large and small animals will be present.... including 2 riding ponies! Knowledgeable staff will be there to answer questions and assist children and adults of the ins and outs of the PETTING FARM!
Our farm is located just 15 minutes south of Ann Arbor, 30 minutes north of Toledo and 45 minutes west of Detroit. This makes the festival a short drive away from all those residing in Southeast Michigan and Northern Ohio.
