Have your questions answered, witness field-side demonstrations and discover the secrets to thriving, sweetly scented lavender in your garden.

It doesn’t stop there! As the resident tree-hugger, Annie will guide a small group about the farm to learn about our diverse collection of plants, including trees, shrubs, perennials and native species.

Thanks to those who make June Bloom Fest an annual tradition!

See you on Sunday, June 9 &
Saturday, June 15, 2024!

June Bloom! With lots of new experiences to try, here’s to getting out into the country to reconnect with loved ones and enjoy the fresh lavender-laced air. Ahhh.

Tickets are limited = your best experience. Our family opens the farm to guests just a few days a year. June Bloom is a very big deal here. The lavender blooms, you get to come and play, then we harvest the crop. You have our pledge to offer a fun and relaxing good time.

Local music, lavender-y food & drink, workshops and so much more!

You’ll get to shop the farm’s Lavender Love Shop & Farm Market. The Shop will be overflowing with handmade lavender items lovingly created in small batches to soothe body & soul, for the garden, gifts, home and weddings too.
Lavender items are created from the crop grown using natural practices where no synthetic chemicals, herbicides or pesticides are used. You will find many one-of-a-kind items unique to Sunshine Lavender Farm.

We’re still partnering up with local artists and other small businesses, so stay tuned for more fun!

Calling all artists!

Painters, are you looking for a plein air experience?

The farm has invited other community partners and like-minded small businesses to consider a return to enhance your June Bloom experience. Follow updates here as plans evolve.

The Poultry Palace is home to a lovely flock of hens and will be clucking in celebration of your farm visit too. Due to the threat of avian flu or HPAI, this area will be closed to guests to keep our feathered friends safe.

You must get a ticket to reserve your spot for yourself, family and friends. You will be asked to check in upon your arrival. Your support of the farm is greatly appreciated.

The farm is quite small, and a truly humble home. In its second decade, there are some grandmotherly plants that are holding on (we don’t have the heart for taking out plants until they are fully expired). You’ll discover that the farm is feeling spry with oodles of young lavender plants, both in the front field and near the barn.
 

How did this event come about? The open farm weekend was originally planned as a thank you to the farm’s loyal farm friends and a means to invest in those who help to harvest the lavender when the field is ready. The farm is open just a few days a year. In June, during June Bloom, while the lavender is in bloom, and just before the crop is harvested, then again for the Lavender Holiday Market. (Stay tuned.) For your comfort, bring a quilt or lawn chair. A hat, water bottle (working hard to be a zero waste/no single use plastic event), sunscreen, garden shears and of course your camera too. No pets, please. We look forward to seeing you on the farm soon!
