Blooms typically appear from late June through the beginning of August, with a peak around July 4th, but timing varies year to year.

THE PHOTOS

Bring Your Own Photographer

Varieties, Color and Weather-Driven Conditions

Flower varieties and color can vary with availability and weather; the farm’s lavender is a natural backdrop and the exact look of the fields depends on conditions at bloom time.
