Visiting lavender farms like these can be a relaxing and photographic summer outing for your family. Spend some quality time together surrounded by fields of lavender in every shade of purple and violet blue. Go for a walk where the lavender grows, have a picnic, snap some photos, and treat yourself to some honey lavender ice cream. Depending on the species of lavender, the best time to visit lavender farms will be late June to early August.
Our list includes Halton and Niagara Falls area farms that offer pick-your-own and pre-picked varieties. Many farms have found creative ways to make natural products using these light and dark purple flowers. Enjoy infused honey and preserves, candles, baked goods and more. I feel so lucky to live near Niagara wine country because it makes the ideal growing home for mostly drought-tolerant lavender. Enjoy your visit, and treat yourself to something beautiful while you’re there.
